CARERS WEEK 7th JUNE – https://www.carersweek.org/about-carers-week/
ARE YOU A CARER, KNOW A CARER OR ARE YOU LOOKING AFTER A LOVED ONE OR FRIEND????
A carer is anyone, including children and adults who looks after a family member, partner or friend who needs help because of their illness, frailty, disability, a mental health problem or an addiction and cannot cope without their support. The care they give is unpaid. No one size fits all, you can be offering support a few hours a week, or round the clock care, you may be living in the same house with the person you care for, or you maybe be living separately.
Below there is a lot of useful links that contain information that may be of use to you. You will also see the details for the Carers Hub and some activities that you can join.
