New book from Holdsworth
Opening the doors (a book of carers' stories) was launched on 21 October 2008 (see ( MediaRelease) by Rev. Dorothy McRae- McMahon (pictured above). As part of our work with carers Holdsworth Community Centre & Services has been running writing workshops in which each person has been writing the story of his or her personal experiences as a carer of a family member – a child with a disability or a partner or parent with dementia. Tapping into their creative sides and working with professional writers has helped participants to acknowledge the journey they have taken as carers and to confront with enthusiasm the wide range of emotions every carer has to deal with. The result is a touching and inspiring book - Opening the Doors: the hidden life of carers - which we hope will be a valuable resource to other carers and increase community recognition of the importance of the carers’ role. Cost $12 if collected from the Centre or $15 if mailed (incl. GST) Order Form.
