Caregiver Support Group
Our Caregiver Support Group provides a safe and supportive space for caregivers of seniors to come together, share experiences, and learn from one another. Facilitated by trained social workers, each session focuses on a specific caregiving theme and offers guided discussion, peer support, and practical insights.
The programme runs as a monthly discussion and peer-sharing session, with each session designed to stand on its own. Caregivers are welcome to join sessions based on the topics most relevant to their current caregiving journey.
Upcoming Session
Each session is professionally facilitated and offers caregivers the opportunity to manage stress, acquire coping tools, and draw strength from peer support.
