Event Info
Events
It’s important for Carers to get a break as it helps them to continue in their caring role. Carers from the South and East metropolitan areas of Adelaide can take advantage of Carer Support’s many events, groups and courses. Events are intended as a source of respite, education, enjoyment and a social outlet for you.
Our events are low cost because we are funded by the Government to provide services to you. We want you to come to our events, so if the cost prevents you, please contact the Support Team on 8379 5777 to discuss it.
Remember we can often arrange respite for the person you care for to enable you to attend.
New Carers are always welcome!
