Feros Care has been supporting Australians for over 30 years. If you feel like you don’t have anyone to reach out to, see how we can help those living with disability, and older Australians. Or if you need a different kind of support there are other professionals that you might find it helpful to speak with. Whether that’s your GP, a counsellor or calling a helpline, reaching out is healthy even if it’s hard. These professionals will be able to help you understand why you’re feeling lonely and how best to overcome it. They’ll also be able to help you feel heard and less alone.
