Are you a carer?

Do you look after someone who is ill, frail, disabled or mentally ill? If so, you are a carer. A carer is anyone, including children and adults who look after a family member, partner or friend who needs help and cannot cope without your support. The care given is unpaid.

If you think you are a carer please contact the surgery for more information regarding the help available to you.
