Anne and John know Jo thrives when she’s given the chance to try new things. In their small country town, they’ve found some of her biggest cheerleaders among the people who already know her. 🧡

One of them is Wendy, Jo’s Support Worker, who Jo met at the local post office. Swipe to hear their story and Anne’s advice for other carers.

As we close out our series, we want to thank Angela, Tracey, Christine, Simmonne, Anne and John for opening up their lives and sharing their stories with us.

National Carers Week is a reminder of the important role carers play in people’s lives, often in ways that go unseen. Our founder, Jane, saw this firsthand when she started Carer Solutions in 2011, speaking with carers and families who wanted to build their support around people they already knew and trusted.

Those conversations still shape everything we do today. 🧡

For Simmonne, staying creative starts with knowing her sons, Matthew and Richard, have the right support to live life their way.

“In order to pursue my passions (such as creative writing and painting), I need to know that my adult sons are enjoying their life too.”

This , we’re celebrating carers like Simmonne who keep making room for the things they love.

Swipe through for her inspiration to other carers with creative passions 🧡

“It makes a huge difference when you can call on someone who knows your child well.” – Christine

As Zoe’s mum and carer, Christine knows the value of having the right people around her family. For her, that’s Keira, someone she knows and trusts to support Zoe. Keira came into Zoe’s life through a work connection, and the two have been a great match ever since.

This , we’re celebrating Christine, who shows up every day for the people she loves, and the trusted circle she’s built around them. Swipe through to meet them all. 🧡

Nurse by day, mum always, and never one to miss the big game. 🏉🧡

Tracey knows Steph better than anyone, so she chose Support Workers the family already knows and trusts. That means she can head to work, or take a well-earned breather, without the worry.

This , we’re shining the spotlight on Tracey and everything she does for the people she loves.

Swipe through to meet Tracey and her family, and catch her reminder for every carer. 🧡

Whether she’s cheering Carolyn-Marie on or taste-testing her latest milkshake (🥤), Angela knows her sister best. So when it came to support, she chose people they both already know and trust to be Carolyn-Marie’s Support Workers, giving them a plan that’s personal, flexible and consistent in who shows up.

This , we’re celebrating Angela and all the carers in our community who bring so much heart and know-how to the people in their lives.

Swipe through to meet them both and hear a little more about their story. 🧡

It’s National Carers Week, and we’re going back to where it all began. 🧡

In 2011, our founder Jane Morrell travelled across Australia, driving hundreds of kilometres to sit with families and carers in their homes and simply listen. They told her what they wanted: support from people they already knew and trusted, people who understood their culture, their community and their family.

So Jane set out to build a different kind of solution for carers. That’s how Carer Solutions was born, with Australia’s first and only Direct Employ service at its heart.

Join us throughout as we recognise and celebrate the carers in our community who inspired it all. 🧡

To recognise and celebrate the carers in our community this National Carers Week, our Community Engagement Specialist, Katey is hosting a morning tea in Beveridge next Monday. Join us for a coffee and a chat with our team! ☕

📅 Monday 12 October | 11am–12pm
📍 Greater Beveridge Community Centre

As our name suggests, we began as a solution for carers back in 2011, and while we’ve grown to support so many more people, carers are still at the heart of what we do.

Today, our Direct Employ model has helped thousands of families directly employ people they already know and trust as their Support Workers.

If you're a carer, work with families in the area, or know someone who'd enjoy a morning out, come along or pass this on 🧡

He built frank green. Then he spotted a problem that needed an entirely new solution.

If you haven’t listened yet, Episode 5 of BUILT DIFFERENT is one you don’t want to miss.

Jane is joined by Ben Young, Founder of frank green. His latest venture, No Wrap, is a reusable alternative to single-use plastic pallet wrap that had never been built before.

Together, they tackle some big questions:
👉🏽 Is sustainability sometimes dismissed as little more than a branding exercise?
👉🏽 How do you back a decision that looks irrational to everyone else?
👉🏽 What's one leadership mistake you wouldn't make again?
👉🏽 What do you do when the problem you can’t ignore is dismissed as too hard, too niche or already solved?
👉🏽 Sometimes the biggest changes start with one deceptively simple question: why are we still doing it this way?

Meet Nat 🧡 One of our wonderful Community Engagement Specialists, who brings a very personal connection to her work.

Growing up in a remote community, Nat saw first-hand how challenging it could be for her family to find the right support for her brother, especially when cultural understanding mattered too. It’s an experience that has stayed with her and continues to shape the work she does today.

Nat is a proud Aboriginal South Sea Islander woman, and her mobs are Nerumburra, Durambul and Guoreng Guoreng. For Nat, having choice over who supports you, including people who understand your culture and community, can make a real difference.

It’s one of the reasons she cares so deeply about helping others have that choice through Direct Employ 💫

BUILT DIFFERENT is opening the door to something new 🎙

Until now, we’ve listened to stories from our own world. Now, we’re sitting down with founders who, like Jane, saw a problem they couldn’t ignore and built something that had never existed before.

First up is Ben Young, Founder of frank green.

His latest venture started with a problem most of us never see.

Hidden behind warehouse doors and retail shelves, enormous amounts of single-use plastic pallet wrap are used every year to move goods around the world.

His answer was No Wrap, a reusable alternative created to eliminate the last bit of plastic from the frank green supply chain.

There was no blueprint. No competitor to copy. Just a problem that needed solving.
