Chatting with a community member at Acland Court Chopping Centre, Saturday 11 November


Situated in-between the amazing baked goods and stunning blooms in Acland Court, Council officers had some wonderful in-depth afternoon chats with the community on their way in and out of the shops.

The two projects discussed were the Aged Care Reforms and the Acland Street Retail Mapping Mix - it was great to be able to chat to regular shoppers of the Acland Street Commercial Precinct and ask them what they loved and didn't love so much about the shopping strip, and what kind of businesses they wanted to see there in future.

Some community members with older parents stopped to inquire about the aged care services Council provides, pick up some information on the proposed changes, and chat through the best way for them to hear about support for older people in our community.

Thanks to everyone who stopped in for a chat, your time was much appreciated!
