Ageing Services in Burdekin
What Is This?

How Is It Funded?
How much does it cost: Funding for social and recreational programs are usually self-funded by individuals or partially funded. Other supports can be funded (partially or fully) through government agencies.
How To Access?
Access for social and recreational programs is through contacting the service directly or via referral. Occasionally access to ageing supports involves assessment by an application process and/or allied health team. Information and referrals are available through designated government agencies.
