Respite at “Your Space”

For people living with mental ill health and their carers

• Are you looking for a short break from your caring responsibilities?
• Need a safe, caring and engaging space for the person with mental ill health you care for?

Introducing…

Carers ACT and Woden Community Services are partnering to create a free safe space for group activities for people over 16 years of age experiencing mental ill health.

Your Space, a pilot service has been designed to include programmed weekly, weekend activities in Woden, to enable a person with mental ill health to participate in the community, build their social connection, explore activities of interest and encourage skill building. The service will be overseen by support workers, experienced in mental ill health.

We are currently taking expressions of interest from carers who are interested in the pilot service which will commence by the end of January 2023 and be ongoing.
