If you are caring for a family member or friend

Providing care to someone who could not cope without you can be hard. The Carer Wellbeing Service provides emotional and practical support to help you if you care for someone and can help you to maintain your own health and wellbeing.

The Carer’s Response Emergency Support Service (CRESS) can provide emergency cover should you need to leave the person you care for. The service is available for all carers, including those caring for a person with dementia.
