Respite Program
If you are the primary caregiver for someone who is living with a disability, we can provide short-term breaks to support you.
Is this program for me?
We can work with you if you:
- are aged over 18
- are living in Melbourne’s north or west
- are a voluntary caregiver of someone living with a disability.
How can the program assist me?
We aim to:
- enhance the quality of life for both you and the person you give care to
- provide positive learning experiences for the person with a disability
- provide opportunities for you to choose the activities that you want to do within the community
- be responsive to your needs.
Please note
We encourage feedback regarding the service we provide and any ideas around respite that are not currently available.
