I am a carer
We think it’s incredible that you’re caring for someone. but understand how difficult it can be. There are lots of things to think about, and sometimes tricky decisions to make. That’s why we have a range of services on offer to support you. It’s important you don’t forget your own needs, health and wellbeing too, so we really encourage you to take a look at how St Christopher’s may be able to help.
I am a young carer
A young carer is anyone aged under 18 whose life is affected by caring for a sick or disabled relative. We understand how difficult and tiring this can be and want you to know that you’re not alone. We’re here with support services, advice and information. Often people are so busy looking after others, that their own needs get overlooked. Please take a look at how we can help and reach out to us if you’d like to talk further.
