Services
Parents & Carers
As well as supporting people with disabilities and their families, we believe in developing opportunities for parents and carers to ensure their lives, as well as the lives of those they care for and their immediate families, are enriched. We do this through assisting parents and carers to participate in their local community, foster relationships that strengthen informal networks provide information and support to plan for their future through key stages of life.
1. Caring for the Carer
To overcome some of the barriers that are associated with caring for a family member with a disability, Interchange Illawarra believes in providing holistic support to parents and carers.
2. Workshops & Information
We can provide one-on-one support to parents & carers to assist with the development of visual aids to support communication with the person you care for.
3. We Value Your Feedback
Your feedback, as well as ideas and suggestions for different activities is very much appreciated.

We've been having so much fun keeping in touch with everyone on Zoom - but we're even more excited now that returning to Social Support is just around the corner 😃🎉
We've sent an important update today to everyone who attends Social Support - check your emails to download that form so you're ready to go once the groups start up again!
If you attend our Social Support groups, you should have received an email yesterday with some important updates about returning to Interchange next month 🎉
There is a form attached with the email that you must sign and return to the office before booking in/returning to our group activities.
We've also made a short video explaining the process of getting your temperature read when you arrive at Interchange - watch at the link below 🤩

Last Wednesday we held a Yoga session over Zoom for our latest Parent & Carer Well-being activity.
Shane and his support worker Renai also had a great time delivering gift bags to those who attended, filled with candles, soaps & lip balms from local business Kayla's Place 😊
We will also be sending the link out to the recording of the yoga session to everyone who wasn't able to make it!
Thanks to everyone who got involved in this event, and keep your eyes out for the next one 😃
I'd like to do a yoga one and gift bag please
