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.

[VIRTUAL] October Session: Understanding Caregiving

Date: Monday, 12 October
Time: 7pm – 9pm
Venue: Online via Zoom

All sessions are free of charge.

Caregiving involves taking on different roles and responsibilities, often requiring caregivers to balance the needs of their loved ones with their own personal, family, and work commitments. While caregiving can be a meaningful experience, it can also bring about challenges that affect various aspects of a caregiver’s life.

This session provides a supportive space for caregivers to better understand their caregiving roles, reflect on their personal experiences, and recognise how caregiving may impact their overall well-being.

In this session, we will explore:

  • Understanding the different roles and responsibilities involved in caregiving.
  • Reflecting on how caregiving can affect physical, emotional, social, and financial well-being.
  • Recognising the challenges that caregivers may encounter throughout their caregiving journey.
  • Appreciating the meaningful aspects of caregiving and reflecting on their personal experiences.

This session is suitable for caregivers at any stage of their caregiving journey who wish to gain a deeper understanding of their roles, reflect on their experiences, and connect with fellow caregivers in a supportive and accessible virtual environment.

Future Session Topics

Upcoming sessions will cover a range of caregiving themes, including:

  • Practical caregiving challenges

  • Financial and healthcare navigation

  • Community resources and respite options

  • Managing caregiver stress and burnout

  • Self-care strategies

  • Preparing for transitions in care

  • Reconnecting with self beyond caregiving

(Individual session details will be shared monthly.)
