If
you are a Carer in East Suffolk,
then you're welcome to join us for an informal coffee session and self-directed
support, where we exchange one-to-one emotional support, information and
advice on such topics as respite, benefits, transport and local services
for those being cared for.
A
“Carer” is a person of any age, who without being employed as such, cares
for another person who needs ongoing support because of a learning disability,
a long term medical condition, a mental illness,
a physical disability, frailty or the need for palliative care. A Carer
may or may not be a family member and may or may not live with the person.

on the second Thursday in the month)
