Caring for Carers is one of the services that the Information Exchange oversees. It is aimed at offering support and friendship for those caring for a loved one. The role of a Carer could be that of a husband caring for his wife with dementia to a parent caring for a child with a special need.
The Health Information Exchange appreciates that the caring role can be a tiring and sometimes isolating role and with this in mind has an ongoing programme of support events.
Caring for Carers provides ‘Away days’ held at Les Cotils 3 times a year where ladies come together and chat over refreshments, have a massage, enjoy a craft and a lovely lunch. They also have ‘pop in days’ on the first Monday of each month at Les Cotils for tea and a chat.
If you would like to know more about the Carers events or if you wish to have your name put on their mailing list whereby invitations can be sent directly to you. you can contact Claire at The Information Exchange on 707470 or by email Claire@information-exchange.org .She will be more than happy to hear from you.
