Dear Friends,
As you know our Changing Gears course due to run in March and April was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The decision was made for the safety and welfare of all those who planned to attend. We will continue to follow the public health guidelines in relation to Covid-19 and we are hoping to reschedule the Changing Gears course from 04. September 2020.
As soon as dates are confirmed for the rescheduled course we will be in contact with you directly.
Age & Opportunity is following the advice of the HSE (Health Service Executive), the Department of Health and the National Public Health Emergency Team (NPHET) who are monitoring the situation.
Our office has closed and our staff are continuing to work from home. All of our training sessions and courses have been cancelled as advised by the Government. We will continue to provide updates as the situation develops. You can contact all staff through their email addresses (available on our website) or for general enquiries contact info@ageandopportunity.ie.
Our friends in ALONE Ireland have launched a helpline for older people who have concerns or are facing difficulties relating to the outbreak of COVID-19 in Ireland, in collaboration with the HSE and the Department of Health. The helpline will provide advice and reassurance, complementing the clinical advice and HSE helpline and support. Should you, or an older person you know, need advice or support you can reach them from 8am – 8pm Monday – Friday on 0818 222 024.
We hope you and your family are keeping safe and well during this difficult time,
The Age & Opportunity team
