Are you a family carer, or do you know someone who helps a friend or family member who is frail, unwell, or has an ongoing health condition or disability? A million New Zealanders are carers, many in 24/7 roles. The last few years have been tough for carers, with worker shortages and service disruptions - family carers have stepped up more than ever, but they are tired, and they need better support themselves. Sign our petition calling for this help for you and the carers you know. And please share it with your connections - everyone knows a carer and every signature will make a difference!
