Carers' Support
Carers Support Groups
We recognise that being a carer can be hard work. The Hospice aims to support our carers and we are always looking at ways to support you. Once on our carer database you will automatically be invited to all carer support events.
Share N Care
This support group gives carers an opportunity to meet others in the same situation and share their experiences. Some meetings are simply social while others are information based.
They are normally held once a month on a Thursday 2.30–4.30pm, but four times a year, we offer an evening session so those who work can also join the group. This is held 6.30-8.30pm. All carers are welcome.
What About U Group
This therapeutic group is run on a weekly basis for a total of eight weeks and held twice yearly. It is aimed at helping carers find strategies to cope and is an opportunity to talk about the frustrations and challenges of caring.
