Noosa Community Support transitions to new name

Noosa Community Support is changing its name and its brand, but the level of service and care for Noosa Seniors will remain the same.

The new name will be Noosa Seniors, which comes into effect on 14 August this year.

As the hub to support seniors, it’s operated under the name of Noosa Community Support since 2015, but the name change is to better reflect who they provide their core support and services to.

Noosa Seniors coordinator Justin Morgan said the change aimed to heighten awareness of the organisation’s primary purpose.

“We exist to provide a way to connect with and support our seniors in the Noosa Shire to be active and lead independent lives,” he said.

“We continue to evolve as an organisation and the name change is more contemporary to help clearly articulate what we do and why we are here.

“The inclusion of seniors in our name aims to make it easier for clients and those in our shire to find and connect with us, but also to help the community understand what we do.

“We want Noosa Seniors to be recognised as the central hub of senior support in our community,” Mr Morgan said.

He said the name change in no way impacted on the organisation’s unwavering commitment to deliver exceptional services in liaison with the Noosa Council team.

“We are part of the council family so the same high standards of quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction that clients have come to expect will continue,” he said.

Noosa Seniors operates under the management of Noosa Council and the organisation strives to support seniors to lead an independent, active and fulfilling life.

Noosa Seniors will continue to provide in-home care in the form of personal care, support with shopping and cleaning, provide appropriate group activities that keep seniors connected, home maintenance and modifications, podiatry services and transport to attend medical appointments.

Noosa Seniors will continue to operate from its convenient location at 11 Wallace Drive, Noosaville and can be reached by phone at (07) 5329 6175. For more information about Noosa Seniors and the range of services they offer, visit noosa.qld.gov.au/noosa-seniors
