Speak My Language about aged care
The Ethnic Communities Council of New South Wales recently launched a new project which aims to facilitate access to aged care information for people who speak languages other than English.
The project will include the delivery of on-air discussions about aged care options in over 25 languages across 80 Ethnic radio stations, across 4 states including NSW, Victoria and Queensland. The project will reach an audience of over 50,000 people per week, who will also have access to several technological based solutions such as live webinars, podcasts and interactive websites to link them to the right information.
