On Thursday the 7th November, representatives from the Older Peoples Executive in Laois along with the Live Well Expo organisers Age Friendly Laois and Healthy Laois and Laois County Council representatives will attend the National Age Recognition and Achievement Awards in Dublin.
The Expo attracted 108 exhibitors, along with key speakers and demonstrations to create an awareness event of the supports and services available in Co Laois. With 2000 attendees on the day of the event in April 2024, the scale and reach of the event saw it nominated for this National award in the communications category. Judging took place on the 20th of September last and the winners in all eight categories will be announced on the night.
