New Carers Radio Show

Carers NZ is launching a new monthly radio programme for family carers. Accessible from http://familycareradio.net.nz/ the first programme includes interviews with Carers Alliance chair John Forman and Baroness Jill Pitkeathly- Carers NZ mentor. There will also be 'Active Wellness' tips and advice from ACC about how to prevent injury and stay well.

This is a great opportunity for all you home carers out there in our community to pick up tips to make your lives easier, listen to like minded people of similar experience and hear how government is trying to improve conditions for carers across New Zealand with the 'Carers Strategy'.

As always if there is anything we can do to help, you can contact DRC Queenstown on 0800 372 786. If you need new equipment supplies for personal care, mobility or any other caring issue just pick up the phone or call in and see us.
