Recipient story
A long-term carer facing sudden family crisis, health concerns, and financial strain while trying to stabilise.
Domestic & Family Violence
GIVIT
This person has spent most of their adult life caring for an adult child with significant mental health and disability needs. Recent family conflict escalated into police involvement, property damage, and a sudden separation from their child, resulting in immense emotional distress and instability.
At the same time, they are managing serious health concerns following a recent fall and hospital admission, with further cardiac testing pending. These events have compounded years of carer fatigue, trauma exposure, and chronic stress.
The household has experienced financial strain due to disrupted income, emergency accommodation needs, and unexpected costs linked to the crisis. While steps are being taken to stabilise housing and reconnect appropriate supports, the impact of illness, disability, and family violence has left this person at risk of ongoing hardship.
Support at this time would help reduce immediate stress, support recovery, and allow space to focus on health, safety.
