Queensland is changing things up for the 60th anniversary of Seniors Week, with a new format to deliver events thanks to our wonderful #SeniorsWeek2020 partner @COTAQld! For more info visit: https://t.co/TopIq1e18X

We’ve made more than 100,000 outbound phone calls to seniors across the QLD to find out how they are going and ask if the #CareArmy can help during the COVID-19 pandemic. #qldpol - https://t.co/x9ykRMHyuR

This morning Veterans Affairs Minister @DarrenChesterMP and I announced the @TheOasisTSV project is another step towards completion - https://t.co/vCoOHBHQ9M

From Sunday, we are easing some restrictions on visiting family and friends. Up to five people from one household will be able to visit another single household. We need to continue to flatten the curve as restrictions ease, so people must continue social distancing. #COVID19aus

Today I had the chance to catch up with Garry Page, Director Queensland at the @RedCrossAU and hear about their work to help the community cope with COVID-19. Also great to hear their commitment to distributing the funds donated for bushfire relief/recovery as soon as possible

[Coralee O'Rourke @CoraleeORourke]

Queenslanders are joining forces to create the Care Army and help those most at risk to get through the #coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. If you need support, call the Community Recovery hotline on 1800 173 349 or visit https://t.co/qXpUG8s0Ii #qldpol

Breaking: The Palaszczuk Government will air-condition every state school in Queensland! And to off-set the cost, we are installing more solar at more schools ❄️ #qldpol

Storm season is underway, and it’s important to keep your family and property safe. Follow @RecoveryQLD for more info. Find out how to tune in to weather warnings and emergency alerts here: https://t.co/xHn4Ws7kZm

Using the free @SnapSendSolve app, you can photograph inaccessible areas or works in your communities and report the issues to one of 600 authority groups, including local councils. For more information, visit: https://t.co/1wOipdBN6g

This is not good enough. Queensland is paying its fair share to get Queenslanders into the NDIS – not waiting by the phone. I will continue to advocate to the Federal Government so Queenslanders get the NDIS plans they deserve, so they can access critical supports quickly.

Construction of @TheOasisTSV is on track to begin in early 2020. Find out more at: https://t.co/ipqD6Ij1mJ

The fact that property damage and personal injury last night was so reduced is because of the herculean effort of our firefighters.

Not all heroes wear capes, but I know for a fact that some of them are wearing the QFES uniform.

Women in the #Townsville region came together today to inspire, to be inspired, to empower & to make a difference. 🙏 Olympic champion @NatCookVB for your wonderful words at our 4th Women on Boards event. 49% of Qld Govt Board positions are now held by women, up from 31% 2015. 💪

[Cameron Dick @camerondickqld]

.@DebFrecklington is hell bent on slashing our successful $46m Made in Queensland manufacturing program by more than half, claiming the @LNPQLD’s proposed $20m Built in QLD fund would be a win for manufacturers in this state?! Why do the LNP hate QLD jobs? https://t.co/TbRNsfgRaA

The jobs record between my government and the LNP couldn’t be clearer. They sacked 14,000 people and given the chance will do it again. Our record?👇

[Coralee O'Rourke @CoraleeORourke]

The Palaszczuk @QLDLabor Gov’t is committed to bringing down the cost of living for Queensland seniors through a range of concessions. Thanks @9NewsQueensland for highlighting some of the ways our seniors can keep dollars in their own pockets. #qldpol

[9News Queensland @9NewsQueensland]

Queensland seniors are missing out on hundreds of dollars of concessions and discounts – and many don't even realise it. @AlisonAriotti #9News
