Title Here

Join us to hear from a representative of the Aged Rights Advocacy Service (ARAS) to learn how they can help advocate and support you or your loved ones as you navigate home services or residential aged care.

A valuable session for anyone considering a move into residential aged care in future, or with parents who may require more care and support at home or in an aged care setting.

Hearing from this valuable service can help you prepare and build resilience for yours or your loved one's future.
