MASP – Timorese-Portuguese Monday Morning Group

With the assistance of funding provided by the Multicultural Affairs Office of the Northern Territory government, COTA NT sponsors two seniors groups – Italians and Timorese/Portuguese – who are brought together weekly for social and community engagement purposes. A support person coordinates the activities, organises translation services where necessary, and assists COTA NT to deliver the program to these two groups of very senior and isolated men and women.

A network of volunteer drivers assists weekly, providing the transport of the ladies using the COTA NT’s Toyota HiACE bus.

The program runs all year round except during school holidays.
