Carers

Are You a Carer?

If you are please let us know – we may be able to help you.

Caring for Carers

At Caring for Carers we understand how difficult looking after someone can be and we’re here to help. 

If you’re over 18 and look after a partner, family member, or friend with an illness or disability, you can ask for a carer’s assessment to look at how caring affects you and the sort of help you need.

We support carers through the provision of:

  • Information and Advice 
  • Drop-in/Support Groups
  • Leisure and Social Activities 
  • Workshops/Training
  • Carers Card Discounts
  • Regular Newsletters

There is also a wealth of information on the NHS website about carers and caring. Below are some links into the site that we hope you will find useful.
