Goulburn Valley Health is joining forces with other support services to host a special Carers Week event in Shepparton.

GV Health's Deb Rachele said the event would be held on Wednesday October 16 from 12-2pm in Wyndham Street at the undercover barbecue area.

Ms Rachele said they had teamed up with FamilyCare, Villa Maria and Wellways to run the event which will be jam-packed with information for carers.

"They are pretty much all the support services we have in the area and they provide a range of supports from financial to respite to education and more," she said.

Ms Rachele said the event was open to the community and anyone could come along to help to acknowledge the unpaid work carers put in this National Carers Week.

"It's all about promoting Carers Week so people know what it’s all about," she said.

The event will feature a free sausage sizzle and raffle with four prizes up for grabs.
