👏Celebrate a member
On the Carers side of the forum, we are celebrating @TiSoG21 for sharing your own experience and tips to support other members who are having difficulties in caring for their loved ones here.
On the Lived Experience side of the forum this month, we want to thank @BPDSurvivor for their ongoing support and encouragement to other members on the forums, such as here.
“I guess we can learn from nature itself. Although it may be sunny, an unexpected cold front can hit us! But don't forget the other way too - it may seem bleak, foggy, and cold, but suddenly, the sunshine appears out of nowhere.”
🎉Forum events to take part this month:
Online Event // Setting Boundaries as a Carer - with ARAFMI // Weds Aug 26th, 7-8.30pm AEST
