Celebrating Care

“The terrain of mothering is not limited to those who give birth to children”, wrote author Angela Garbes who’s work celebrates the truly essential nature of caregiving.

Care, is the invisible thread that silently weaves the fabric of our societies together and extends beyond biology.

Care is transformative, a tangible expression of love and compassion. It does not come without compromise or sacrifice and in the shadow of human achievements those who care can be left feeling isolated, unworthy, the true enlightening spirit of caregiving obscured.

Caregiving is raw, exposing and expanding work, it enriches.

It is valuable, valued and communal.
