Toowoomba Family Fun Day

Celebrate carers at our Family Fun Day!

Join us for a fun and inclusive celebration of the incredible unpaid carers in our community. Whether you’ve been caring for years or are just beginning your journey, this family-friendly event is your opportunity to connect and be recognised.

October is a time to celebrate unpaid carers, especially during National Carers Week (12–18 October), which shines a spotlight on the vital role carers play. We’re extending the celebration throughout the month to ensure more carers can take part. Some may have missed out on past events due to work commitments, lack of respite, or not yet identifying as a carer. That’s why our Family Fun Days are designed to be welcoming and inclusive for all carers.

Bring your loved ones and enjoy fun, connection, and community spirit. Let’s come together to celebrate the vital role carers play in our lives.

What’s On:

💬 Information and support from local services
🤝 Opportunities to connect with other carers
☕ Free refreshments
🎉 Entertainment and activities for all ages

Who is a carer?

A carer is someone of any age who helps a family member or friend who has a disability, mental illness, chronic condition, terminal illness, or is frail due to age. You can receive Centrelink payments (like Carer Allowance or Carer Payment) and still be considered unpaid.
