In the lead up to the state election in March, Carers WA in consultation with our membership has identified two specific priorities for carers in Western Australia.
To support the recommendations, please follow the below instructions to send a prefilled email to your local MP.
We call on candidates to commit to promptly completing the review of the Carer Recognition Act 2004 and to support changes which enhance the rights and recognition of carers.
We call on candidates to commit to funding carer respite facilities in WA to allow carers to continue in their important roles.
