Belmont Locals to Talk Local Issues at Upcoming Seniors Forum

The Member for Swansea, Yasmin Catley will host the upcoming Seniors Forum to give Belmont locals the opportunity to hear from their local member, interact with services providers in the electorate, and network with other locals.

The forum will be held at the Belmont 16s to give people from Belmont and surrounding areas the chance to attend.

Attendees will hear directly from their local member, Yasmin Catley.

Stalls set up around the venue will give people the opportunity to speak a variety of service providers in the area, find out more information, and seek assistance.

It’s also an opportunity to network with others and discuss local issues.

Over 200 locals have registered for the event, making this years’ forum one of the most successful yet.

Stall holders and local community groups attending the forum include:

• Lake Macquarie Police District;
• Hunter Tenants Advice and Advocacy Service;
• Fair Trading;
• Service NSW;
• Carers NSW;
• Home Instead;
• Energy and Water Ombudsman;
• Seniors Rights Service;
• Turnbull Hill Lawyers;
• Lake Macquarie City Council
