Friendly Carers Group
We're a lively, welcoming group of carers who connect for peer support, friendship, and a well-deserved break from our caring roles. As a fellow carer, I facilitate the group and provide support in a safe and understanding environment.
We meet monthly for a Carer's Morning Tea on the last Friday of the month at 11:00AM at Lynbrook Community Centre. It's a great opportunity to share experiences, enjoy good company and some delicious food! If you're able, we'd love for you to bring along a small plate of something to share. Don't worry if you can't - there's always a tasty selection provided for everyone.
We also host a monthly art workshop at Springvale Bunnings, along with special events like Christmas in July, our festive end-of-year celebration, and casual Devonshire tea meet-ups at a local market.
Coming soon to Keysborough!
The Friendly Carers Group will soon be extending to Keysborough and will run the first event closer to the end of 2025.
Join us and be part of a vibrant, supportive carer community.
