National Carers Week is an annual Australian event held in the third week of October. It recognises the vital contribution of unpaid carers and raises awareness of the support they need to sustain their caring role.
For many carers, taking a break can feel difficult to prioritise. National Carers Week is a timely reminder that seeking support is not a sign of giving up; it can help carers protect their wellbeing and continue caring for the people who matter to them.
