21.01.2022 Ten FM's Local News Watch- LOCAL VOLUNTEER GROUPS GET FUNDING BOOST WITH RECENT GRANTS Beneficiaries Include- Tenterfield Total Care, Oracles of the Bush, Gran...ite Borders Landcare, Tenterfield Swimming Committee- Pictured: Member for New England, Barnaby Joyce & Tenterfield Total Cares Meals on Wheels. The Coalition Government will provide a funding injection for 16 community groups and organisations in the New England to support the work of local volunteers. Member for New England, Barnaby Joyce, said the grants will support the work of many volunteer groups in the electorate including rural fire services, community transport, meals on wheels and sports clubs. While the work of our volunteers may be unpaid, it is not unrecognised, Mr Joyce said. From fighting bushfires, delivering food to vulnerable Australians in isolation and helping out with the weekend sport, they are all local champions. Their contribution is vital to ensuring that we continue to support families, provide employment pathways for young people and strengthen community resilience. Mr Joyce said the funding injection coincides with National Volunteer Week being celebrated this week. Its vital we acknowledge the important contribution of our local volunteers in the New England, he said. Minister for Families and Social Services Anne Ruston said the funding would go a long way to support organisations and their volunteers through what has been a tough year. The bushfires had a devastating impact on many of our people and communities across the country and we are now living through a global pandemic, Minister Ruston said. Volunteers freely give their time and skills to support others and will play a key role in communities over the next few months. This funding recognises the sacrifices they make to help deliver vital services to those who need it most. Nationally, volunteering has an estimated annual economic and social contribution of $290 billion. The awarded grants are between $1,000 and $5,000. National Volunteer Week runs from 18-24 May. You can get involved in the online activities by visiting the Volunteering Australia website.

20.01.2022 What is a Homecare Package? The Australian Governments Home Care Package Program helps you to live independently in your own home for as long as you can. The Program provides a subsidy towards a package of care, services and Case Management to meet your personal needs. There are four levels of Homecare Packages. A professional assessor will work with you to find out if a Homecare Package is the right service for you, which level of service you need and when you might need it.... The four package levels are structured as follows: Level 1 supports people with basic care needs Level 2 supports people with low-level care needs Level 3 supports people with intermediate care needs Level 4 supports people with high-level care needs. Each level of Homecare Package provides a different subsidy amount. This amount is paid to an approved homecare provider that you have selected. The subsidy contributes to the total cost of your service and care delivery. As part of the Governments Aged Care reforms, Homecare Packages are now portable. This means that when you have been allocated a Package, you choose the Provider that best suits your needs to manage your package. If you are not satisfied with your current Provider, you can choose to move your Package to another Provider and your Unspent Funds will transfer with you. Tenterfield Total Care has been assisting consumers to remain independent and living in their own home for over 20 years. We take the time to understand your requirements and find the right carer for you. For more information on how to arrange an assessment for a Homecare Package you can contact: My Aged Care on 1800 200 422 or Tenterfield Total Care on 0267364947

16.01.2022 Day 3: Listen Listen to me, dont always try to solve my problems People who live with dementia dont always need you to step in to solve their problems. Sometimes they just need you to lend an ear. Really listening to people living with dementia is a great way to understand how you can support them.

16.01.2022 Stuck on what to do today? How about teaching your grandkids how to cook a family recipe! #mealsonwheelsnsw #mownsw #morethanjustameal #recipe #grandkids #cooking

13.01.2022 Thanks to the generosity of Woolworths, all our local meals on wheels clients today received a delivery of toilet paper. We hope everyone is staying safe.

13.01.2022 Some extra helpers today taking time out of their homeschooling lessons to learn the importance of volunteering.

11.01.2022 Day 2: Space Give me a little space to do things for myself It can be tempting to take over and do things for people with dementia. You might be surprised by how much they can do for themselves. Are you giving people with dementia enough space? Take Dementia Australias quiz to find out what you can do. Visit https://discrimination.dementia.org.au/action-week/ for more information.

09.01.2022 Our volunteers help bring clients together at social gatherings organised by many local Meals on Wheels services. To locate your nearest Meals on Wheels service, visit our website at https://nswmealsonwheels.org.au/Find-Us

07.01.2022 People living with dementia often have different sensory perceptions, and their immediate environment can have a large impact on their wellbeing and quality of life. Creating a dementia-friendly environment can go a long way to improving the lives of people with dementia. A dementia-friendly environment is familiar to the person, easily accessible, safe, secure, and supports the person living with dementia to retain their independence.
