The Plan is based on the eight domains of an age friendly community (two of which have been combined based on community feedback), each with a number of associated actions as listed in the following table. These are designed to allow Council to respond to changing needs and ensure support for the wellbeing of the Shire of Goomalling ageing population. Many of the actions outlined are able to be implemented within existing resources however any new or expanded activity will be considered through the Shires standard corporate planning processes.
