Did you know there are currently 3 million people aged over 65 in Australia?

Did you also know that unless the aged services workforce is supported to grow, 279,000 Australians will be without aged care by 2050?

With this in mind, the peak body for age service providers in Australia, Leading Age Services Australia (LASA), has launched a new campaign - 3 Million Reasons - to fight for better aged care now and into the future.

Its mission is to support our age services workforce, including residential and community care, to grow and develop to meet the needs of older Australians.

Encourage staff members, their networks and family members to sign on to the campaign via a computer terminal in the tea room or a roving laptop;

Spread the word of the campaign via payslips, group emails or alerts on programs like AutumnCare/LeeCare;

Add the support banner as part of your email signature;

Submit photos of staff or residents holding the support banner and submit to the 3 Million Reasons website.
