Description

Join COTA Victoria, Seniors Rights Victoria, and the City of Melbourne to share your experiences and ideas on healthcare access, housing security, and financial wellbeing, and connect with others passionate about creating a community where older people feel supported and valued.

The discussion will help inform COTA Victoria’s first State of Ageing report and build on our recent pulse community survey, which heard from nearly 500 older Victorians across metropolitan, regional, and rural Victoria. Your input will contribute to our ongoing advocacy to government, helping shape the changes needed to support people to age well in Victoria.

The discussion starts at 10.30am, with morning tea following from 11.30am.

Council on the Ageing (COTA) Victoria is the leading not-for-profit organisation representing the interests and rights of people aged 50+ in Victoria. Celebrating 75 years of service in 2026, we have led government, corporate, and community thinking about the positive aspects of ageing. Today, our focus is on promoting opportunities for, and protecting the rights of, older Victorians.

We are a not-for-profit community organisation and fund our activities with the support of government, members, philanthropic trusts, businesses and the public. We have an experienced Board, highly qualified Melbourne staff, and dedicated community volunteers throughout Victoria. As a member-based organisation we are run by, for and with older Victorians.

Seniors Rights Victoria (SRV) is the key state-wide service dedicated to advancing the rights of older people and the early intervention into, or prevention of, elder abuse in our community.

SRV has a team of experienced advocates, lawyers, and social workers who provide free information, advice, referral, legal advice, legal casework, and support to older people who are either at risk of or are experiencing elder abuse. SRV supports and empowers older people through the provision of legal advice directly to the older person.
