Power to Care Radio continues to shine a light on the voices, experiences, and strength of unpaid carers—those who hold so much together, often without recognition.

Hosted by Kristine Rawlinson, CEO of Power to Care, alongside co-host Michelle Willoughby, a professional in the carer sector with deep lived experience, this episode welcomes a special guest—Michelle’s friend Amanda. Together, they bring a heartfelt and practical conversation about the role of community in the lives of carers and the people they support.

In Episode 2, we explore how connection can be the difference between isolation and belonging. From informal networks of friends and neighbours to structured community programs, we unpack what meaningful support really looks like—and why it matters. Amanda shares her perspective on showing up, staying connected, and the small but powerful ways community can sustain carers through both everyday challenges and life’s most difficult moments.

This episode is a reminder that no one should have to do this alone. When community wraps around carers, everyone is stronger.

Power to Care Radio is more than a conversation—it’s a growing movement to ensure carers are seen, supported, and valued.
