Introduction

go to disclaimer

This WWW site is dedicated to caregivers of all kinds in Australia and throughout the world. I hope that caregivers will visit this site and use it to help them in their individual circumstances. Use this discussion to put your story about Care giving across the web. Answer a particular question if you know the answer. You can offer advice to someone or seek advice from someone who has already experienced what you are going through. Start a new thread or simply reply to the threads already running.

A page of links is included in this site to whisk you away to carer related information elsewhere on the WWW at the click of a mouse button. These links include forums such as chat, and news groups and other carer specific web pages which I have accumulated and which may be helpful to people in a caring situation. Your email address or web page URL can be listed here as well but you will need to send an Email to me and specifically ask me to do it.

If you know of any links which may be of interest to other caregivers please Email the address so that I may include a link to the site on the links page. In that way other caregivers will have easy access to a number of links which may interest or help them.

The "Guide" page lists resources and support facilities to assist caregivers in various locations. Please Email any resource information you may have for your region. The geographical location will be identified in the the list, so don't forget to mention your location when you send the information.

All good web pages have a disclaimer notice so maybe this one had better have one too.
