Growing Older eBook Launch

You’re invited to the launch of our new eBook Growing Older –​​​​​​​ Your legal guide to protecting your interests and wishes as you grow older on 21 September at Fort Scratchley Function Centre – held proudly in conjunction with the Hunter Ageing Alliance.

At the launch, a round table discussion of highly accomplished experts in their own area of elder law will share their tips for overcoming the challenges and celebrating the opportunities that come with growing older.

The discussion will cover topics including healthy ageing and developing aged-friendly cities, wills and estate planning, planning for retirement, aged care accommodation and contract issues, and elder abuse.

Moderated by our Principal and aged care advocate Catherine Henry, speakers will include:
