Are you a carer?
A carer’s life is often restricted by the need to be on-call, for just for an hour a day or up to 24 hours a day - because the person you look after cannot be safely left alone for long periods. A little trained assistance can have an enormous benefit on your health and lifestyle.
A Carer can be a husband, wife, partner, son, daughter, mother, father, grandparent, grandchild, a friend or a neighbour.
Many people do not see themselves as Carers. Statistically it takes 2 years for people to recognise themselves as a Carer.
