CARERS FORUM (October)

ARAFMI – originally started as an association for carers of those with mental health issues whose aim is now to “enhance the wellbeing of people with mental illness, their families, carers and volunteers” – is holding their Becoming Visible Carers Forum 2019 on 15th October (during National Carers Week) at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre.

As an opportunity for carers of someone with a mental illness to connect with others, hear from industry guest speakers and obtain the latest information about the person they care for this could be an invaluable day for many.

The forum is FREE to attend but spaces are limited so to find out more and/or REGISTER, click on the ARAFMI logo below.
