14.01.2022 Unique ways to spend time with your Father/Grandfather this Father’s Day! On a typical Father’s Day, it is all about bringing the family together - BBQ’s, a bit of backyard cricket for the kids and lots of hugs and kisses. This year, however, is different due to the COVID-19. Some are still able to enjoy the local café/restaurant or even a game of putt-putt golf, however, this is not the case for a lot of our elders who are at a much higher risk of infection. We have put... together a few ideas you can use to still show your love to Dad/Grandad at a distance. Have a Virtual Lunch or Breakfast!- Why not have a virtual breakfast or lunch over Skype and feel as though you are at your favourite place together. Bring a plate! Get Crafty!- There is nothing better than receiving gifts that have been made with loveeven if that means macaroni art is the result! Have the kids make up some crafts and personalised letters and deliver it to their door. Have a project day!- The gardens may be looking a bit overgrown and the lawns could use a tidy. Why not spend some time helping get those much-needed projects done? Personalised delivery!- Put together a basket of his favourite things puzzles, books, beer or snacks - they will love the thought you have put in. A simple phone call!- Having to stay indoors as much as possible can start to feel a bit lonely. Why not have a long chat on the phone! It will go a long way. #fathersdaygiftideas #fathersday

13.01.2022 Sadly, we have had to put our "Pet Therapy" services on hold during the current times to ensure the health and well-being of our clients. We can't wait to be able to bring back the adorable Poppy, Coco, and Lulu to give lots of cuddles and licks as conditions hopefully continue to improve coming into the New Year.

12.01.2022 This week is National Carers Week! From October 11 to 17, the National Carers Week raises awareness to celebrate all those who provide care and support to people with disability, mental health condition, chronic & terminal illness, alcohol & drug issues or who are frail aged. A huge shout out to those in our community who have selflessly shown dedication and love to the people they care for, we value and appreciate you!... Did you know: - There are 2.65 million unpaid carers in Australia who provide unpaid care and support to family members and friends. - Unpaid carers have played a major role in flattening the curve of COVID-19 infections by sheltering at home and keeping vulnerable Australians safe. - It is estimated that carers will provide 2.2 billion hours of unpaid care in 2020. - The rate of employment among primary carers (those who provide the most care for an individual) is 47.3%, compared with the Australian average of 65%. Carers make such an outstanding impact to our community. This year’s theme is Tell Us Why You Care.
