Brimbank carers participated in a gem art afternoon on Thursday, June 26, hosted by Brimbank council.
Gem art involves sticking small ‘diamonds’ or ‘gems’ in a paint-by-numbers system to create sparkling works of art.
Carers had the opportunity to enjoy a well-deserved break from their care giving roles and engage in a fun and relaxing afternoon in the company of other carers.
Eve Balfour, who participated in the art session, said she’d “been looking forward to this all week.”
Bedia Kisa , another participant said “she loved the Carers Space, the people and the community”
“[The] Carers Space is a good place to go to deal with the tension of caring responsibilities,” she said.
