RESPITE FOR CARERS, PARENTS, FAMILY MEMBERS
Are you caring for a person with a dual disability (dual meaning being diagnosed with intellectual disability and mental illness)?
Do you live in the southern or eastern Adelaide metropolitan region?
Would you like to hear more about opportunities for respite?
The Carer Support and Respite Centre (CS&RC) may be able to assist you with your need for support and/or respite through the new Mental Health Respite Program (MHRP).
Both planned and emergency respite is available.
Contact the CS&RC on 1800 059 059 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
You may also find out more about this program and other respite and support services at www.carersupport.org.au

These include the Adelaide and Monarto Zoos, and the Crows and Port Adelaide football games held at AAMI Stadium. It is also valid in other states at certain venues.
