This school holidays, Carers SA will host its annual Carers Expo on Tuesday 1 October, a special event dedicated to supporting unpaid Carers.
Who is an unpaid carer?
An unpaid carer is someone who provides essential care, support and assistance to a family member or friend living with:
- disability
- mental illness
- dementia
- chronic health conditions
- A terminal illness
- alcohol or drug-related issues or
- frailty due to age.
If you’re a carer, this is your opportunity to discover free support services offered by Carers SA.
They also support young carers aged 5–25 and the Young Carer Team will be available at the Expo to answer questions and provide resources specifically for young carers.
Don’t miss out on this FREE event!
The Expo brings together a wide range of government agencies, community organisations and service providers, all under one roof, offering expert advice and showcasing the support available to you in your caring role.
There will also be fun activities for kids, making it an event for the whole family!
