During March and April this year, COTA Tasmania staff visited several community organisations and day centres, to speak to older Tasmanian's about their experiences of COVID-19.
Tasmania has the oldest population in the country, with around 20 per cent of Tasmanian residents aged
65 or over. Despite this, there is currently no tailored mental health response for older Tasmanians.
Energy is an essential service. It is critical to individual, family and community health and wellbeing, as well as to overall economic activity. All Tasmanians, regardless of their means, have the right to reliable, safe and affordable energy.
The team at COTA Tasmania is moving to work from home from Tuesday 24 March. We are making this move to support our community effort to manage the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19). You can still contact us and we are keen to hear from you! We will still be contactable at admin@cotatas.org.au.
