Vale Coralie 🧡 The Caringa Australia community would like to pass on our condolences and best wishes to the family and friends of ex- Caringa Board member Coralie Hall. Without the valued contribution of volunteers like Coralie, Caringa would not be the organisation that it is today. Rest in peace Coralie and thank you. 🧡

🏉☀️ What an unforgettable experience! ☀️🏉

On the 12th September we attended People First Stadium to support the AFLW Gold Coast Suns v Collingwood Magpies in Rd 5 of the AFLW season. 🏈😊

Bastian, Justin & Kate were invited to join in with the guard of honour as the ladies took the field, cheering them onto a huge 30-point win over Collingwood. 🎉🙌

At full-time we were thrilled to engage with Suns midfield star Charlie Rowbottom & Suns Disability & Inclusion Ambassador Daisy D’Arcy. (That’s Daisy handing the ball to Kate)

We admire & value the Suns commitment to their community and its members irrespective of ability, creating a true sense of belonging that brings us all together. Thanks ladies!! 🌟

Suns Community Engagement Manager Wendy Marshall has been such an advocate of not just our industry, but also our community living with disability. Thank you, Wendy, for the once in a lifetime moments you’ve created and the endless memories our clients have captured as a result.

We’re always met with such warmth and a smile by the broader Suns organisation when we attend home games. 🌟 🏈😊 🌟

💙✨ This Invisible Disability Awareness Week, we're shining a light on the disabilities that often go unseen.

Many people live with disabilities, conditions and health challenges that aren't immediately visible, yet they can impact daily life in significant ways. 👀💭

A little understanding, patience and kindness can make a world of difference. 🌏💛 Let's challenge assumptions, listen without judgement, and help create a community where everyone feels valued, supported and included. 🤝🧡

Together, we can make the invisible a little more visible. 💙✨

National Carers Week | A Heartfelt Thank You 💜

This National Carers Week, Caringa would like to recognise and celebrate the incredible unpaid carers who provide ongoing support to family members, friends, and loved ones every day.

Your dedication, compassion, and selflessness make a profound difference in the lives of those you care for. Through your support, encouragement, and advocacy, you help people maintain their independence, achieve their goals, and enjoy a better quality of life.

The care you provide often happens quietly behind the scenes, but its impact is truly extraordinary. Your commitment strengthens families, builds stronger communities, and brings comfort, dignity, and opportunity to those who need it most.

To every unpaid carer, thank you. The support you offer is truly special, and your contribution does not go unnoticed.

💜 Happy National Carers Week from all of us at Caringa.
