Do you need to learn new skills? Want some tips on dealing with stress? Do you want to chat to someone who understands exactly what you’re going through? Access a range of practical online resources and tools that can help make your life easier.

• Get practical help and advice – need some practical advice on how to manage your day to day, how to plan for the future, how to access support services, or how to cope with the curve ball life sometimes throws? Check out our blog posts.
• Take an online course – learn how to take better care of yourself, and how to manage the impacts caring has on your life through a series of self-guided carer coaching and online courses.
• Peer support – the Carer Gateway Community Forum offers a safe, anonymous space to connect and chat to other carers around Australia about a wide range of topics and issues that are important to you.
• Access the National Carer Gateway – every single day, around 2.7 million Australians care for someone who needs a little extra help. Yet almost 80% have no idea what support is available to them. The National Carer Gateway was created to help you get the practical advice and support you need before you reach crisis point.
