We are a women’s only safe space
Last week's Carers Coffee and Chat at Nan Tien Temple was a peaceful oasis for our monthly meetup!
The Weavers program, supporting Carers in the Illawarra, is a lifeline for those navigating the journey of caring for a loved one with Dementia. Carer-led and peer-supported, it's designed to nurture the health and resilience of Carers every step of the way.
Carers are paired with experienced Weavers—women who've walked a similar path in caring for someone with Dementia. These compassionate mentors offer invaluable support, companionship, and a listening ear, drawing from their own experiences to guide and uplift others on their caring journey.
Funded by Carer Gateway, our program warmly welcomes new Carers and Weavers alike. Coordinated by Sharon Stewart, who leads training, support, and program evaluation, we're here to make sure no one feels alone in their caregiving role. Sharon can also offer referrals and information about local services and supports.
For more details, feel free to reach out to Sharon at 0492857827. ... See MoreSee Less
