“Choose your own activity” session for Carers living in Brimbank

Carers, you are invited to join us for a “Choose your own activity” session at the Brimbank Carers Space.

We have plenty of art and craft supplies (mindful colouring, painting, gem art, knitting, etc), good coffee, puzzles and board games-or bring a project you are working on. This is a relaxing environment and session designed for you to enjoy the Carers Space in a way that works for you. Light refreshments are also provided.

The Brimbank Carers Space is a pilot that has been co-designed with local unpaid carers in the Brimbank community. It is a space that aims to reflect and respond to needs by providing opportunities for relaxation, respite and connection. Unpaid Carers support others that live with a disability, a medical condition (including a terminal or chronic illness), a mental illness, or are frail and aged.

**Please note, “unpaid” Carers refers to Carers that are not working in a formal (e.g. support worker) capacity and does not exclude those who are receiving a Carers allowance.

If you would like to clarify whether you are eligible to attend this session, please contact CarersSpace@brimbank.vic.gov.au. Please RSVP using this email address too.
