INFORMATION and support for older people will be on offer at an advice fair in Hartlepool's Middleton Grange shopping centre today.
The event is being run to celebrate the International Day of Older Persons and has been organised by the older persons local implementation team - a group which helps develop and enhance opportunities for older people in Hartlepool.
Tracy Jefferies, manager of Hartlepool Carers, said: "The aim of the event is to increase awareness of the help and advice available to older people in the town. We hope as many people as possible will drop in."
Information stands and displays will be open between 9am and 5pm.
