How I support adult carers
Who is this service for?
If you are a carer (or think you might be), you can refer to this service, or a healthcare professional can for you.
Who can access it?
Any adult living in Manchester or Salford.
You may be helping a friend, neighbour or relative with day to day tasks, their substance misuse, learning disability, physical or mental health. We’re here to support you if you support others.
I have a package of support tailored to your needs as a carer, ensuring you know your statutory rights and what you’re entitled to, advice and support about your own circumstances, coping mechanisms, and looking after your own wellbeing.

What people say about my carers service
Having someone to speak to about my caring role who understands makes a huge difference to me.
Thank you for your support and for listening without judgement. I was able to speak honestly about my role as a carer and the up and down of emotions that brings.
You allowed me time to express myself & listened attentively. For the first time in a while ‘I felt listened to & heard’. You are a star, please keep doing what you are doing.
