Additional Support

As well as our core services, we have developed additional servoces to meet your needs as a carer.

Our training programme provides you with opportunity to access training to help you in your caring role.  This includes access to Caring with Confidence, a 7 week national training programme to build on your skills and knowledge to make a positive difference to your life and that of the person you care for.

Our support groups provide you with the opportunity to get support from peers who are going through something similar allowing you to share both positive and negative experiences.   Groups include parent carers, mental health, and young adult carers group (18 -25 years).  If you would like to access groups which are not listed, please contact the Development Manager at the centre..

Our activities and events programme allows you to access support, the opportunity to have a break from your caring role and the chance to socialise.  This includes day trips, walking group, lunch club, computer group, art and craft sessions.

Our buddying service allows you to be matched with another carer who is going through or has been through similar experiences. You can phone, text or meet up with the carer for support.
