Welcome to the first edition of the Care Mosaic, a podcast that explores the challenges that unpaid carers face on a daily basis.

Today we will be hearing from Pru and Kylie who, despite being optimistic about the role they play in the lives of the people they care for, are not the biggest fans of the term carer.

Make yourself a cuppa and sit back as we hear how these women came to be carers, what caring means for them and the assumptions we might need to change to make the term carer one that better matches their experiences.
