Why we need to identify carers
Caring can be very rewarding, but also very demanding and can affect physical and mental well-being. Many carers are trying to work, study and look after other family members in addition to their caring responsibilities. We believe it is important to ensure carers are aware of support available as early as possible.
We are a not for profit registered charity providing high quality care at home and support services for carers and people with care needs.
UK’s largest charity
We are also a Network Partner of Carers Trust, the UK’s largest charity for, with and about carers. We work across Cheshire and Warrington, Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Shropshire and Herefordshire.
We have almost 250 trained professionals, helping close to 9000 people, including over 600 young carers, with practical and emotional support each year.
