There are 3 million carers in Australia. Chances are you know one. You might even be one yourself.
A carer is anyone who provides unpaid support to a family member or friend who has a disability, a chronic condition, a mental illness, or who is frail aged. Carers come in all ages and circumstances. Many combine caring with work, study and raising their own families.
National Carers Week, 11–17 October, is a chance to recognise and celebrate the contribution carers make every single day.
At Holdsworth, we know that the people doing the caring need care too. We are here for both.
