Description

Extended Families Australia helps families who have a child with a disability by linking a mature aged volunteer, known as a "foster grandparent" with a family who has a child with a disability. These disabilities may include cerebral palsy, downs syndrome, autism, sight impairment or any number of other disabilities. A 'foster grandparent', spends regular time each week with the child and the family, relieving the parent by spending time with the child and building up a very special relationship with the child.
