Three million Australians are unpaid carers.
They're supporting a family member with disability, dementia, or complex needs - not as a job, but as a life. And most of them are doing it without a plan. Without a backup. Without anyone having written down what happens if they can't show up tomorrow.
I find that number both incredible and heartbreaking.
Incredible because of how much love and commitment that represents. Heartbreaking because of how invisible most of it is — and how vulnerable it makes both the carer and the person being cared for.
Support Plus exists because of that gap. If you're one of the three million — I see you. And there's a simple way to start.
