“The only things that count in life are the imprints of love
which we leave behind us after we are gone”Albert Schweitzer.
Stories and Photos
Because of the nature of the group, serving women in Brisbane as well as rural and remote areas, not everyone meets face to face. These pages provide a format in which women can write their story and have a photo of themselves, allowing members in the groups to put faces to names and voices and stories.
Sometimes it is helpful to know the stories of other women, and it can be interesting and thought-provoking to write your own journey, as much or as little as you would like to share.
Finances
Keep a spreadsheet of all costs. Include service dates, invoice numbers etc. Ring Centrelink and make an appointment to find out what benefits you are entitled to, e.g. disability support pension, carer’s allowance, carer’s payment. Ring your superannuation board and discuss whether you are entitled to a payout, and what may be involved in accessing your money.
