“I have attended Carers Club events both online and in person, and have gotten so much out of them. The connection with other peers is so validating and Emma is the most beautiful facilitator. She creates a space that is so open to share and also perfectly respects your need for silence and space if that’s what you need that night. So grateful for the creation of this community, it’s certainly helped me feel more seen and supported, and less alone.”
— Kate Fisher, Milkshakes for Marleigh
“I recently attended one of The Carers Club online Gatherings. Emma was a warm and welcoming host who provided a safe space taking us through some heart opening activities. It was so nice to make time to reflect, be heard and to be still in a guided meditation. Emma effortlessly provides understanding and support as she speaks from a place of true empathy, which comes from years of experience as a carer and also as one being cared for.”
– Treena Pritchard, Canberra, Australia
Gatherings
In Person Gatherings
Looking for people who truly get it? Our Sunshine Coast Carers Club is a relaxed, welcoming space to connect, share a laugh (or a tear), and recharge with others walking a similar path.
We meet once a month on a Friday in Mooloolaba at UnitingLife. Sometimes we have special guests or activities, other times it’s simply great conversation — but there’s always yummy food and a cuppa waiting for you.
We also pop up with extra catch-ups and events during the year, including National Carers Week.
Come as you are — you don’t have to do this alone.
Online Gatherings
Just like our in-person gatherings, we bring the connection, warmth and fun — only this time, it comes to you. Pop on your PJs, grab your favourite bevvy, and enjoy meaningful connection from the comfort of home.
Book Worms Book Club
For Clubbers Who Are Book Lovers!
Join the best Book Club going around! We know that reading is one of the big tools in your real self-care toolbox. Whether it is listening to an audiobook while at a hospital waiting for the Doctor’s rounds, or with a book as you finally crash into bed after a full-on day, reading transports us to other worlds. We pick a new book every 2 months and then meet up online to discuss – often with the authors as our special guests! All you need to join is WhatsApp and Zoom (and maybe a library card).
“This is the power of gathering: It inspires us – delightfully – to be more hopeful, more joyful, more thoughtful: in a word, more alive.”
-Alice Waters
