The Bean Retiree and Seniors Forum, hosted by David Smith MP, Federal Member for Bean, is part of a series of forums across the electorate of Bean in Canberra's south. The forums are for retirees, those contemplating retirement and seniors to provide information about government supports, aged care, community services and other community networks.

I will be joined by a number of local service providers at the forum and also launch the refreshed Bean Retirees and Seniors Information Booklet – a 70-page guide that brings together current information from a range of agencies and services and may assist you in connecting with support, local services and community groups in retirement.

It includes information about:

Government benefits, support and payments
Health, Medicare and aged care
Wills and legal affairs, scams, safety and online safety

The booklet also provides contacts for community support services, activities and other useful numbers and website links.

All forum attendees will receive a copy of the booklet.
