Carers

A carer and an elderly lady

Anybody who helps a friend or relative who is too ill, frail or disabled to manage alone is a carer. Most people don't think of themselves as carers.

Carers are entitled to a carers assessment this is an assessment of your needs and can include advice, support and training.
