FILE REF:858 33
SUBJECT:SERVICES FOR AGED AND DISABLED ADVISORY COMMITTEE
The function and role of the Services for Aged and Disabled Advisory Committee has recently been reviewed. The reasons for the review is that it is felt the Committee in its present form is not achieving its objectives.
The Committee was originally formed in 1986 to advise on matters relating to services provided by the City of Wanneroo's Home Support Service. Membership comprised of volunteers, community groups, business representation, churches and the Home Support Coordinator. The Committee assisted in the establishment and development of the Home Support Service.
Services for aged and disabled have grown since this time with the introduction of day care, respite programme and the community options programme. In April 1992, the Committee was restructured and renamed Services for Aged and Disabled Advisory Committee. Its objectives were:
.to act as an Advisory Committee to Council on issues relating to aged and disabled;
.to promote the welfare and care of the disadvantaged, the frail aged and disabled in the City of Wanneroo;
The existing members of the Home Support Service Advisory Committee plus new members formed the renamed Committee.
There has been limited progress with this Committee due to memberships ability to offer regular commitment to attend meetings and to put forward, address and action issues that relate to the broad range of services for aged and disabled in the City of Wanneroo.
At the last meeting held on 25 June 1993, the future and role of the Committee was again discussed. The Committee stated that there was a need for a broader base of membership in order for all issues relating to services for aged and disabled to be addressed. A proposal was carried that the Advisory Committee in its present structure be disbanded and a new Committee formed. Service providers, both in community base care and residential, consumers and other interested individuals would be invited to nominate for membership.
It is being proposed therefore that the existing Advisory Committee be disbanded and that new terms of reference be developed to be approved by Council at a later date.
RECOMMENDATION
That Council approves the dissolution of the current Services for Aged and Disabled Advisory Committee.

SUBJECT:SENIORS' WEEK 1993
The annual Seniors' Week is scheduled for 24 October 30 October 1993. Seniors' Week celebrations aim to promote the positive role of seniors in the community and to break down the myths and stereotyping associated with ageing.
The role of Council is usually twofold:
.It supports the seniors organisations in the City of Wanneroo through the Senior Citizens Association by assisting with the coordinating and promotion of activities. The City usually contributes funds of $1,000 to help meet the costs of the Association's activities for the week.
.The Council normally hosts a special function.
The State Government's office of Seniors' Interests has invited the City of Wanneroo to apply for funding on a matched basis for the purpose of holding regional Seniors' Week events. Due to the closing date of 9 July 1993 for these applications, the following submission has been made and its endorsement is requested. A grant of $900 has been requested.
Three projects have been submitted for consideration.
.A competition requesting seniors to write about their perception of being a senior. This project intends to dispel some of the myths about ageing and give seniors an opportunity to state their role in the community.
.A Senior Citizen Award to be given to a senior who has made a contribution to the community. This will be advertised and written nominations invited. This project recognises the valuable contribution that seniors make.
.Choirs from four schools will visit four nursing homes in the City of Wanneroo. Intergenerational activities are important for interaction between seniors and young people. One of the nursing homes has predominantly Italian speaking residents and efforts will be made to match this home with children from an Italian background. The children will share afternoon tea and talk with the residents after their performance.
The following is a breakdown of the budget for the three projects.
