Over three-quarters of a million Victorians are unpaid carers.

They’re everyday people who provide unpaid care and support to family members or friends with a disability, mental illness, substance addiction, chronic health issue or an older person with care needs. They’re parents, children, partners, other relatives and friends who assist with a variety of daily activities.

There’s at least a 1 in 10 chance that you are, know or will be a carer. Join Carers Victoria this National Carers Week 11-17 October 2026 to recognise these incredible people!

Here at Torquay Community House, we host a number of free services that support carers.

Mental Health & Wellbeing Connect - Mondays fortnightly, 9am - 12pm
Dementia Care & Support - information session Tuesday 20th October, 10:30am - 12pm, followed by 5 week program starting Tuesday 10th November.

Contact us for more information.

Free RSA Course at Torquay Community House

If you run a club or organisation with volunteers pouring drinks at events, this one's for you. Surf Coast Shire is running a free RSA course at our place on Tuesday 15th September, 5pm to 11pm.

It's a great chance to get your volunteers certified or renew an expired RSA before your next function.

A few things to know before you register:

You'll need a USI (Unique Student Identifier). Don't have one or can't remember it? Head to www.usi.gov.au, it only takes a couple of minutes.
Register using the exact name on your USI, or the system will bounce it.
There's a short sexual harassment module to complete online after the course (about 30 minutes) before your certificate is issued.

Spots are limited, so get in early. Find the link below or in our bio to register.
