Do you look after someone who couldn’t manage without you?

Are you looking after a partner, child, friend or relative who needs support because of frailty, disability, a health condition, mental illness, or alcohol/substance misuse?

Is this care unpaid?

If this sounds like you, then you are a carer.

Caring can take its toll both mentally and physically. It is possible that your own health may suffer because of your caring responsibilities.

But Action for Carers is here to help. We have a range of services to support you in your caring role – they are free, and confidential. And we can signpost you to further sources of help and information.
