COTA Tasmania's story
Council on the Ageing (COTA) Tasmania has been a member of the 26Ten Network since 2017.
What it means to be part of the 26Ten Network
“Council on the Ageing (COTA) Tasmania is all too aware of the importance of communicating clearly in our work with people across the state. Being part of this network assists to keep us connected to likeminded organisations and to continue in our learning journey as a team, ensuring we offer accessible and inclusive information and support through our programs and services to older Tasmanians.”
Why is 26Ten important to your organisation
“26Ten helps us to reflect and consider the different audiences we have and the best way to clearly speak to each audience. We share the same values as 26Ten and as an organisation we are committed to being part of the solution to our state’s literacy challenges, as well as make our workplace supportive for all.”

The secret is, you've just got to put your hand up and ask for help
"26Ten is a good idea. People out there should know that there's opportunities available for them. All the infrastructure is there. All they have to do is walk in and put their hand up."
John's story
"My grandson showed interest in hearing about my life story. This inspired me to learn to read and write. So I went to the library and was matched with a volunteer tutor who helped me start learning."
