The Foster and Kinship teams hold picnics for carers in the area to connect. Our Hobart picnic was a hit! One of our wonderful carers said "it was a beautiful way to spend the afternoon, meet more of the team and to connect with others in the caring space."

Supporting eachother, even if it's over cake and coffee, is such a crucial part of thriving in the caring community 💚
