Information for Carers

MANY PEOPLE ARE CARERS AND DON’T REALISE!

A carer is someone of any age who, without payment, looks after a relative or friend who due to ill health, physical or mental disability, frailty or addiction cannot manage without their support.

Carers can have a wide variety of caring responsibilities including washing and dressing, paying bills, transport, emotional support, health appointments, medication and domestic tasks such as shopping and cleaning.
