The Seniors Morning Coffee Club was held at Noorla Bowls Club and despite the change in location, spirits remained high as attendees enjoyed a lively morning of Trivia and Bingo.
Guest speakers from Ergon provided valuable insights to the seniors on understanding electricity bills and managing energy costs. Their presentation was well received, and the Hinchinbrook Community Support Centre appreciate their ongoing support for our senior community.
The Hinchinbrook Community Support Centre gave their staff member Shannen a special mention, thanking her for collaborating with Ergon’s Energy Literacy Program.
If you or someone you know needs help understanding electricity bills or learning how to be more energy-efficient, Shannen is available for assistance—call 07 4776 1822.
Seniors may also be eligible for Ergon’s Hardship Grant, which provides up to $700 towards electricity bills and can be accessed every two years. Those experiencing financial difficulties are encouraged to apply.
The Hinchinbrook Community Support Centre also gave their thanks to Ingham Palliative Care for providing transport for seniors who needed it.
