National Carers Week is about recognising and celebrating the outstanding contribution unpaid carers make to our nation.
Join us for a series of virtual talks about caring for a family member, friend or neighbour.
Caring For An Older Person
Sue Pieters Hawke will reflect on her journey as a carer for her parents Hazel Hawke and Bob Hawke.

Presented by Hornsby Shire Council, Ku-ring-gai Council, Lane Cove Council, Mosman Council, North Sydney Council, Ryde Council and Willoughby City Council. Proudly supported by Carers Support Service.
