We run two friendly and inclusive social groups each month, designed especially for unpaid carers.
These groups offer a safe, welcoming space to connect with local people who understand the challenges and rewards of caring.
Our Carer Support Workers and volunteers are on hand to listen, offer advice, and chat.
If you’re not yet registered with us, don’t worry – you can easily sign up on the day.
You can bring the person you care for or come on your own.
There is no need to book.

“I didn’t know what to expect but came along because I had questions around getting care at home. My question was answered with such helpful detail, and I spent the rest of the time chatting with other carers. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly. I’ll come again next month!”
