Do you support an older person, or expect to in the future? Or, are you planning for your own future? Join us for the second event hosted by ‘Age-Ed’, an initiative designed to support informal carers for older persons and ageing researchers.

The event, themed ‘Decision-Making Capacity’, will feature a panel discussion with lawyer Miriam Barber, lawyer and social worker Anne-Louise McCawley, and medical doctor, medical educator and PhD student, Kimberly Haladyn.

The discussion will focus on what is meant by decision-making capacity, recognising signs of impaired capacity, and some practical guidance about supporting a person whose decision-making capacity may be impacted.

The event will take place from 12-1pm on 22 May 2025 in the Sir Harry Gibbs Moot Court, UQ Law School, Room W247, St Lucia, with a Zoom option available.
