Join COTA (Council on the Ageing) Tasmania us as we come together with communities around the world to combat elder abuse.

Preventing elder abuse is a critical issue:

One in six people experience elder abuse.
Psychological abuse, including coercive control, is the most common, followed by other forms such as neglect, financial, physical, and sexual abuse.
Abusers are typically someone the elder knows.
Only one-third of victims seek help.
Ageism is a primary driver of abuse.

Details on the Day:

Please gather at 9.45am for a 10.00am start at the Information Booth in the Elizabeth Street Mall. (Liverpool Street End)

The walk makes its way around the CBD ending at Mathers House where there will be a forum and a series of speeches.
