  1. Support for Carers
  2. Emotional support

Emotional support

Our aim is to offer a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere for Carers to talk about aspects of their caring role, confidentially in a non-judgmental way.  Carers Support Workers can provide a listening ear and information through a variety of ways. You can drop in to the centre and talk confidentially to a member of staff about any aspect of your caring role. Alternatively, a member of staff can support you over the telephone or arrange to meet with you at home or local community centre, at a time and a place that suits you.  Carer Support Workers can also arrange for more specialist support from a professional Counsellor or Holistic Therapist.
