Lo hails success of her Age Awareness Constituency Surgery
30/03/09
South Belfast Alliance Anna Lo MLA held a special constituency surgery on 27th March 2009 to highlight the important role of older people in our community and said she was pleased with the success of the event. It was held in her constituency office and Alliance European Election Candidate Ian James Parsley took part in it along with representatives from Age Concern, Help the Aged, Engage with Age, the Age Sector Platform and Access 2 Benefits.
Anna Lo said: "This event was well attended and was a real success. As a public representative it is of paramount importance to me to engage with everyone across the community.
This surgery was designed to enable older people to voice their views and seek assistance on a wide range of issues. Many older people do not claim all the benefits that they are entitled to, and we hope that by raising awareness we will help alleviate this problem.
