How we work
We fund services across the NT that support older people to stay well, connected with their community and health services, and independent.
Programs are delivered by local providers and community organisations, to make sure people can access care.
Why this matters
The NT has a growing older population. Older Territorians can often face unique challenges in accessing care due to distance, limited local services and workforce shortages, particularly in remote communities.
Supporting locally delivered services helps older people stay connected to care, maintain independence, and continue living well in their communities for longer. It also ensures support is responsive to local needs and culturally appropriate where required.
