What is Family Care Radio?

The Family Care Radio show and website is an innovation in New Zealand and globally, providing an integrated, entertaining information channel for carers.  An all-round holistic experience, it can be digested in bite sized chunks, or as a full course meal, depending on the time and energy you have available.  Hear more about the ideas and aims of Family Care Radio in our first programme.

The development of Family Care Radio was made possible with support from the New Zealand Government's Digital Strategy Community Partnerships Fund.
