National Carers Week (15-21 October) is a chance to thank, celebrate and raise awareness about the one in six Tasmanians who are caring for a family member or friend.

We acknowledge the traditional owners of the lands and waters upon which we work, live, and sustain ourselves. This land was never ceded, and we acknowledge that the Tasmanian Aboriginal people are its continuing custodians. We pay our respects to Elders past and present.
We welcome, support and include carers who may identify as LGBTIQ+, carers with disabilities or from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. We value and respect the diversity of carers, their lived and living experiences, and recognise that carers are the experts in their own lives.
Our programs are funded by the Commonwealth Department of Social Services (DSS), the Tasmanian Government and the Home and Community Care (TAS HACC) program.
