Neuro Carers
A social group for carers of people living with neurological conditions
Although caring for someone we love has great rewards, it can be tough for the carer to look after themselves too. We know that many people within our community are carers but we also know that often people may not realise that they are carers.
Does this sound like you?
• I am a friend or relative of an adult or a child who can’t manage alone without me
• They are unable to manage because they have a neurological condition
• I’m not paid to care (apart from benefits)
If you answer yes to any of the above you are a carer.
We’re delighted to have the Neuro Carers groups which supports adults who care for people with neurological conditions in order to provide a safe space to meet and talk openly to others with a shared understanding.
When: The second Tuesday of every month
When: 10:30am – 11:30am
Where: Online, via Zoom
On Tuesday 12th of November, from 10.30am until 11:30am, we will hold a special session for Carers Rights Day. The session will include a creative activity related to this year’s theme ”Recognising your rights”.

“As a carer myself I know first-hand how important it is to take a little break. We know that caring can be very isolating as people find they no longer have time, energy or money to meet up with friends – or even family members. It can be difficult to socialise with people who may not understand or want to listen to difficult aspects of your life as a carer. Through the meet-ups we also want to improve support, services, and recognition for anyone living with the challenges of caring.”
