This November, Trilogy Care was honoured to participate in the 2024 Venus Thanksgiving Lunch, an event dedicated to raising funds for gynaecological cancer research. Hosted by our brand ambassador, Paula Duncan, the lunch raised funds for pioneering and life-changing research.

What was the event?

The Venus Thanksgiving Lunch, part of WomenCan’s event series, focuses on raising funds for ANZGOG’s cutting-edge research and clinical trials. Attendees heard from medical professionals discussing advancements in treating gynaecological cancers, alongside personal stories of resilience and hope by women affected by gynaecological cancers.

The event served as a powerful reminder of the devastating impact of a cancer diagnosis and the critical importance of fundraising to support those affected by gynaecological cancers.

How did Trilogy Care contribute?

Trilogy Care proudly supported the Venus Lunch through a significant donation and our attendance at the event. Four members of our leadership team joined Paula Duncan in celebrating the achievements of the doctors, nurses, scientists, and carers working tirelessly to advance cancer research.

Our team was deeply inspired by the event’s focus on recognising and supporting the people behind these life-saving efforts.

What was achieved?

The 2024 Venus Lunch raised more than $80,000 thanks to generous contributions of individuals and organisations through raffles, auctions, and donations. With more than 100 guests in attendance, the event educated and inspired through an engaging mix of statistics, research updates, personal stories, and ambitious goals for the future.

Jean Kittson AM, renowned author, actor, and comedian MC’d the event, which featured a special guest performance by Catherine Alcorn.

On December 3 each year, the world comes together to observe International Day of People with Disabilities (IDPWD). This year’s theme, “Amplifying the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future,” highlights the importance of inclusion and empowerment.

At Trilogy Care, while we are best known for our support for older Australians, we are proud to assist many individuals who identify as having a disability. We are dedicated to fostering an environment that meets the unique needs of every care recipient, including those with that may identify as having one or more disabilities.

Disabilities faced by older Australians

It’s common for older Australians to develop age-related disabilities, such as dementia, vision impairment, diabetes, or osteoarthritis. At Trilogy Care, we specialise in providing the support you need to manage these conditions, offering assistance with medication, transportation to appointments, in-home nursing, and more.

Age-related conditions can often arise unexpectedly. If your circumstances change, our clinical team is here to help update your care plan and guide you in accessing any new services you require.

We understand that self-management might feel daunting, especially if you identify as having a disability. That’s why Trilogy Care offers support at every step of your self-managed Home Care Package journey.

If self-management becomes overwhelming, our Self Managed PLUS tier provides additional care coordination. With this service, we take care of sourcing support providers and care workers on your behalf, allowing you to focus on your well-being.
