What a lovely honour to have the Toogoolawah Swimming photoed in this great new children’s book

Thank you for inviting me to attend today's Dementia Friendly Launch at the Somerset Civic Centre.

Today's event was an opportunity for Somerset seniors to learn, connect and celebrate the launch of a new Council-produced children’s book, ‘You’re Not a Nonny Nu, Nanna We Love You’, written by Donita Bundy with artwork by Marita Reynolds.

Nonny comes to the pool with her recently died red hair and it goes into the water but because our staff are aware of being dementia friendly, we take time to put Nonnys worry at rest.

Somerset Regional Council’s dementia-friendly initiative is supported by the Queensland Government Department of Families, Seniors, Disability Services and Child Safety following a successful application for $42,200 in funding through the Age-friendly Community Development Grant program.
