An exclusive information session is organised by AASHA AUSTRALIA FOUNDATION which is a charity organisation based in Sydney to connect, inform and assist the seniors with services available to them in Australia.


Speaking with SBS Hindi, Bijinder Dugal said that this is a forum where seniors and their families can get information about their rights so that our community can benefit from information and ask questions to all major service providers about their rights in Australia.

She added that everyone has a right to live in a respectful and safe environment. That's why this session is important not only for seniors but their children too to have all the information.
