If you’re caring for a spouse or partner experiencing mental ill-health, we invite you to join our Caring for a Spouse or Partner Support Group (Online), held via Zoom.

Caring for a spouse or partner with a mental ill-health is a different experience to caring for an adult child or other family member or friend. This support group has been created in response to feedback our carers. 

Our online support groups provide a safe and supportive environment where participants can share their experiences, explore alternative coping strategies, support other group members, or simply listen and observe. Support groups are also a valuable means of informing carers of Arafmi services and resources available to assist their caring role.

This group meets on the Third Thursday of each month, 10:00am – 11:00am.

To join these support groups, you’ll need a device with internet access and a stable connection.

Meeting times are scheduled in Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST). Please note, online carer support groups do not take place on public holidays.

To register, please contact Arafmi’s Carer Support Team by emailing carersupport@arafmi.com.au, calling 1300 554 660, or completing the Expression of Interest (EOI) form below. A team member will assist you with the registration process.
