Carers meeting at family centre |
The Beachside Family Centre, Umina, will be holding a "carers for children with special needs" meeting on Wednesday, October 24.
Local facilitator Ms Debbie Notara said the centre would like to invite all carers for children with additional needs to be a part of an ongoing support group.
"At this group, carers will meet other caregivers who are trying to face the challenges of raising children with special needs and other chronic conditions," Ms Notara said.
"Caregivers will be able to gain a lot of support from this group, whether it is emotional support, information about other services, finances or just an opportunity to sit down, relax and take time out."
Afternoon tea will be provided for a gold coin donation.
Free child minding is provided and bookings for child minding are essential on 4343 1929.
The group will meet every fortnight on Wednesday afternoon at 1pm until 2.30pm.
The Beachside Family Centre is located on the grounds of Umina Public School.
