Help Needed
Health & Wellbeing Expo for Seniors
10.00am - 3.00pm, Friday, 1 October, Wellington Town Hall.
Come to this FREE expo and:
Discover a proactive approach to ageing...Come to Wellington City Council’s Health & Wellbeing Expo for Seniors, where you will find everything you need to know to enjoy a great life as a senior in Wellington.
Information available about travel, computer training, keeping fit, Tai Chi and genealogy. You can talk to people about services you may be entitled to and go shopping too - there’ll be a great range of gadgets, clothes and other interesting things on offer. Providers of care services and home support will be along too.
Wellington MenzShed has a stand at this Health and Wellbeing Expo next Friday, 1 October.
There will be many professional stands there from organisations like Grey power, Age Concern,
and others with interests in this area. We are a small player, but we are doing our part to
help men in our community.
We have a great opportunity to demonstrate and talk about what we are doing. We could
gain new members, new men with skills, and possibly funding to ensure we can keep going.
At the moment we have just a table, a power point, and one person to hand out leaflets.
We will attract people’s interest if we have something happening on our stand that shows the
sort of things we do. Then they’ll stop, watch, and we can talk to them.
We urgently need some sheddies to bring along anything small they are working on, and
spend perhaps an hour working at our stand. It could be screwing together some parts,
designing a better letterbox, gluing another part on your project, sharpening a tool, making
a Christmas present for your grandchild. Keep it simple to that you can easily carry in your
items, and any tools you need.
Please me to let me know what you will do, and what times you will be there.
