Join us for a free six-week workshop series based on our new resource, Caring for Older Tasmanians. During these workshops, we will explore the modules with you and discuss your challenges over a cuppa. All questions are welcome.

Week 1. Prepare to Care (on Friday, 7 February)
Navigating the aged care system or supporting someone who is ageing can feel like learning a new language. This session will guide you through the first steps, including finding support, starting conversations and information on advocacy.
Week 2. Physical and Mental Health (on Friday, 14 February)
Understand common changes as we age, learn how to support good physical and mental health and the important roles professionals play.
Week 3. Staying at Home (on Friday, 21 February)
This session will outline options for staying at home, downsizing, or other living choices. We’ll explore how to support older people at home and home care options.
Week 4. Respite and Residential Aged Care (on Friday, 28 February)
Considering an aged care facility or respite? This session will provide helpful information on short-term stays and permanent care.
Week 5. Planning for Life and End of Life (on Friday, 7 March)
Planning ahead is key, but it can feel overwhelming. This session will break down important topics like Wills, Powers of Attorney, and Advanced Care Directives. Learn how to get the right support and make the process easier for both you and the person you care for.
Week 6. Caring for the Carer (on Friday, 14 March)
In this session, we will explore ways you can prioritise your wellbeing, where to find support, and how to take care of yourself while caring for others.

This event is open to all carers registered with Carer Gateway. Please note that the venue will be confirmed soon.

Our team will be in touch with you to provide further information once we receive your expression of interest.
