Workshops for former carers on exiting the carer role

Researchers from UNSW Sydney, the University of Melbourne, and Deakin University, in partnership with Carers Victoria, are conducting a research study to improve understanding of transitions and pathways out of caring. 

We are looking for carers whose care roles have ended to share experiences of exiting their caring role.

Your participation will involve attending 2 online workshops (set 4 weeks apart) of 4-5 participants, facilitated by research team members.

In these workshops, you will meet with other former carers and hear their stories. You can also capture your experiences and stories about care endings in your preferred ways. You can share these stories and documents with other participants and the research team.

You will receive a $30 gift card for each workshop you attend.

If you are a former carer and would like to contribute, please contact the research team for further information: Professor Emma Kirby (emma.kirby@unsw.edu.au; 02 9385 9065); Dr Zhaoxi Zheng (zhaoxi.zheng@unsw.edu.au; 02 9348 2625)
