The idea of co-housing is gaining in popularity around the world. With thought and planning, older women in the Wide Bay area could get their own 'women in community housing' up and running. Such a group could buy acreage at the edge of a country town that could accommodate independent housing for some and unit bedsitters for others. There we could grow most of our own food and entertain ourselves with space for hobbies, crafts and relaxation. This is not a 'get rich quick' scheme.
Mutual support can achieve goals well beyond the limits of a single person acting alone.
It is an opportunity for a group of older women to fulfil their dreams.
