Caring for both your children and your ageing parents isn’t just love - it’s endurance, compassion, and courage all at once. If you’ve ever felt stretched thin between the people who need you most, you’re not alone.

This powerful piece from HelloCare shines a light on the incredible strength of Australia’s sandwich generation.

A Future Plan answers the questions carers often wonder of what happens to the person I care for, if something happens to me?

When you’re caring for someone, even the smallest tasks can feel like too much.
That’s why “Let me know if you need anything” often goes unanswered - it adds to the mental load instead of lightening it.

Support Plus helps make real, useful help possible.
💜 It keeps all the details in one place - from routines to preferences.
💜 It means anyone stepping in knows exactly what to do.
💜 It takes the pressure off you to explain everything, every time.

Because the best way to help is to make life a little lighter, and Support Plus helps you do just that.

🌍 Global Caregiving Stats That Might Surprise You

Behind every number is a story - of love, resilience, and responsibility.

Around the world, unpaid carers make up one of the largest yet least recognised workforces on the planet. Parents, children, partners and neighbours quietly provide care that keeps families, communities, and entire systems running - often without formal pay, recognition or support.

📊 Here’s what the data shows:

• Around 748 million people aged 15+ aren’t in the global workforce because of care responsibilities.

• The economic value of unpaid care is estimated at $11 trillion USD every year — nearly 9% of the world’s GDP.

• In Australia, unpaid carers save the economy $77.9 billion each year, yet many face burnout, financial strain, and limited access to services.*

• Women make up over 75% of unpaid carers, spending three times more hours on care than men.

Behind these statistics are real people, balancing work, study, and family life while holding others up. Their contributions are vast, but their visibility often isn’t.

At Support Plus, we believe that recognising carers is the first step toward truly supporting them. By valuing their time, energy, and expertise, we can build a care system that’s sustainable, fair, and human at its core.
