Nominate a carer for them to receive the special recognition they deserve with a #Camdenlove bear as Council celebrates National Carers Week.

National Carers Week, celebrated between 10 and 16 October, is an opportunity to recognise, celebrate, and raise awareness among all Australians about the diversity of Australia's 2.65 million carers and their caring roles.

Mayor of Camden, Cr Therese Fedeli, said now was the perfect time to nominate a carer for a #Camdenlove bear.

“Carers make an enormous contribution to our community and equally make a huge positive impact on those they care for,” Cr Fedeli said.

“Now is the perfect time to nominate a carer for limited edition #Camdenlove bear. There are five bears to choose from representing love, bravery, inspiration, sustainability and generosity.

“This year more than ever a number of Camden residents have stepped up and shown their love for the Camden area and commitment to helping those in our community who need it most, proving that carers are all around you.

“I encourage residents to nominate a carer in their life and give them a special thank you as we celebrate National Carers Week.”
