No Greater Gift DVD

Carers can play a vital role in supporting a loved one who has a life-limiting illness. 

In the Centre’s DVD No Greater Gift, past and current carers share their personal stories of assisting a loved one in the hope that others will benefit from their experiences. As well as being a great resource for individuals and families in preparation for taking on a carer role, No Greater Gift can also be used to generate discussion during a support group or counselling session.

The Centre produced No Greater Gift with funding by the Victorian Cancer Agency and the Victorian Department of Health.
