As many of you are aware, on behalf of the NSW Liberals & Nationals, the Shadow Disability Services Minister, Andrew Constance, has taken steps in the NSW Parliament to introduce a Carers Recognition Act. This legislation is the first step towards recognition in New South Wales of carers in their own right.
The NSW Liberals & Nationals would like to invite you to discuss our NSW Carers Recognition Bill 2010 at the Small Hall of the Pennant Hills Community Centre , Yarrara Road, Pennant Hills, on Monday, March 15, at 4.00 pm.
Andrew Constance will be there, along with colleague, Kevin Humphries MP, Shadow Minister for Mental Health,.
Thank you and please continue to tell your fellow carers, friends, family and work colleagues about the Caring4Carers.com.au website and our legislation, the NSW Carers Recognition Bill 2010.
