Police have pleaded with people to take better care of their elderly neighbours following the tragic deaths of a Sydney couple in their home.
A couple, both in their 80s, were found dead in their home this week in Palm Beach, on Sydney's northern beaches.
The husband, who was his wife's carer, is believed to have died of natural causes.
New South Wales Police, says, without her husband's help, his partner, who was blind and had other disabilities, apparently died some time later.
Police say support should also be coming from the community.
Meanwhile community leaders acknowledge, in some communities, there is a major stigma associated with seeking help from outside the family.
