If you’re a grandparent who’s providing full time care for a grandchild up to 18 who has some form of disability or a long term medical problem, you might be interested in a national network called “My Time for Grandparents”. It’s a government initiative designed to give grandparents raising grandchildren the opportunity to get together and share information.

There are branches in over 200 suburbs and towns. For more information, go to www.mytime.net.au
