Service Provision

Adult Carers

Carers provide unpaid support to a partner, relative, neighbour or friend with an illness, frailty or disability, because they are unable to manage independently.

• There are no set hours.
• The person you care for may be in their own home, or your house.
• The person you care for may or may not have formal support from social care or others.
• You may or may not receive Carers Allowance.

Every caring situation is different so working out what will help you is vital.

We can support with the following:

• Counselling
• Skills & Confidence
• Respite
• Advice & Information
• Connect with other carers

Young Carers

A Family Wellbeing Worker will help you access:

• a Carer Support Plan, to identify where and what help would be useful
• learning opportunities, to give you skills/confidence in your caring role and more awareness of your own health and wellbeing
• peer support, like the monthly Carers Café or young carer activities during school holidays, to meet other carers and make new friends
• respite, to get away from it all and recharge your batteries
• someone to talk to when you feel you can’t carry on
• professional counselling, when you need more than emotional support
• advice and information, to make caring that bit easier

and anything else you might need to cope with your caring role.
