There are millions of reasons to care! This National Carers Week we celebrate the more than 2.65 million carers in our community.
Carers are an essential part of our health system. They are the foundation of our aged, disability, palliative, and community care systems. This week we acknowledge their work and celebrate their contribution to our community.
