Recently we had the pleasure of hosting a fantastic networking event at our SIL home in Liverpool for like minded providers and their teams. The open and heartfelt conversations made it truly special reminding us of the genuine connections that bring our community together.
Our Liverpool SIL home embodies the essence of what we strive for—calm, warmth, and a space that feels like home. A huge thank you to Sharmila our Home caring Liverpool director for hosting and to Karen Lorenzon from @konnect_fest our beloved “Pink-Haired Lady,” for her amazing collaboration. We’re incredibly grateful to be part of such a supportive and inspiring community.
Here’s to more meaningful gatherings and connections ahead! 🩵

Last Friday our Home Caring Campbelltown team enjoyed a memorable day at the zoo with even the rain holding off for us! Our cherished clients joined us for a day packed with smiles, laughter and the simple joy of being together. From the moment we arrived there was a buzz of excitement as we explored the sights, enjoyed the animals and soaked up the sunshine. It was one of those days you look back on and remember fondly, where every moment felt special and full of connection.
These outings are what we here at Home Caring do best-creating memories and sharing experiences that add quality to life. We're your trusted locals taking you beyond the everyday, bringing a sense of adventure and crafting experiences that leave a lasting impact.

Hidden or Invisible Disabilities Week 20-26th of October is a timely reminder that disabilities aren’t always visible. Here at Home Caring we understand that many people live with unseen challenges from neurological and cognitive to sensory and processing difficulties. Our team is committed to approaching each interaction with empathy and a readiness to support ensuring that individuals receive the patience and respect they need regardless of their unique needs or preferences.
A simple tool to discreetly share that someone may need extra time or assistance is the Hidden Disability Sunflower available as a lanyard, pin or wristband. This symbol helps to raise awareness in public spaces signaling to others that understanding and support are appreciated. If you or someone you know could benefit from this, you can get one at buff.ly/3MAbhoH. We wholeheartedly embrace this initiative striving to create a welcoming world for everyone whether their challenges are visible or hidden 🩵
