Calling All Carers!

Identifying as a carer is not always something that comes naturally to families who support a loved one with a disability.

The line between what we see as the role of family and what are added or unique responsibilities when a family member has a disability can be very fluid and can also change over time.

In this episode, we unpack this further with Kirsten and Claire from Carers Queensland and explore the various options for support, including for siblings and young carers. 

If you would like to contact Kirsten or Claire for more information or support, please call 1300 747 636 or head to the Carers Queensland website.

Now And The Future is a production of Down Syndrome Queensland.
