FAMILYCARE is hosting free morning teas across the Hume region to connect with carers, who are welcome to share their thoughts and feedback on services.
Team leader Jason Watts and peer support coordinator Jill Smith are providing the morning tea in Puckapunyal and other areas, hoping to improve their services and create more suitable events and resources for carers.
Mr Watts invited all carers to attend morning teas, which will be used to receive feedback.
“Being a carer can be challenging, rewarding, frustrating, confusing, and overwhelming, sometimes all in the one day,” he said.
“FamilyCare’s Carer Support Team are here to listen, empathise and seek to understand the needs and aspirations of carers.
“From this starting point we provide carers with the information, supports and services to assist them in their caring role and support them to have time for themselves.”
Puckapunyal carer morning tea will be on June 1, from 10.30am to 11.30am at Puckapunyal Primary School, Alamein Road.
No registration is required for the event.
