What is Conversations with Council - Seniors Month?

Council will be hosting meaningful conversations around the region at various localities for our Seniors to enjoy a coffee and a chat. Through these conversations, Gladstone Regional Council aims to strengthen community connection, participation and wellbeing to create a community that feels supported.
