Role Title: History Project Intern
Organisation: Swan Districts Senior Citizens Centre Association
Internship Period: Semester 1 (February - May)
Location: Bellevue WA
The Swan Districts Senior Citizens Association has been serving the people in the Midland District for over 30 years.
Operating from a purpose built facility in the centre of Midland, it has provided leadership, advocacy, entertainment and education for the local seniors.
There have been many changes and the Seniors no longer have a purpose built facility but are still a vibrant and engaged community.
This role is about engaging with members, local organisations, Midland Historical Society and Local Government to compile a brief history of the Association.
This is currently under review, however the Association is Incorporated and exists in its current format to provide assistance for seniors to follow the State Govt Strategy of being able to:
- thrive physically, mentally and spiritually
- live in safe and age-friendly communities
- stay connected and engaged
- have views that are heard
