Meet The Exceptional Caregivers Life

Connect with a community that gets it. Real and compassionate conversations about the highs and lows of caring for individuals with disabilities and complex needs, hosted by Surrey Place’s Family Advisory Council members Liz Phipps and Wendy Robertson. Stories of successes and challenges—of finding joy, hope, humour, respite and community to keep going on a journey that is often hard, exhausting and isolating. Hear about lived experiences with caring for individuals of all ages with autism, down syndrome, fetal alcohol spectrum disorder, Emanuel Syndrome, medical fragility and other complex needs. Learn about finding community, self-care, advocacy and gratitude. Hopefully, you will be inspired by the relatable stories of these exceptional caregivers.
