Becoming a carer affects people in different ways. Whether by choice or circumstance, there is no doubt that caring can be difficult at times.

Usually there is not any prior training so most people muddle through as best they can, learning as their role develops. Although it can be rewarding caring can also feel frustrating and stressful.

We help Carers develop strategies to cope with stress, communication, looking to the future and managing change.

We provide:

• the opportunity to share experiences
• information on local services
• practical advice
• social events
• emotional support
