I hate forms, I feel sure I'm going to do it wrong and so fail. My support worker filled in the application for me like it was an ordinary thing to do.
Having someone to speak to about my caring role who understands makes a huge difference to me.
Struggling to care for a child with special educational needs as well as balancing work and doing shopping for my mum is tough. Support from Gaddum has really helped me look at balancing everything I do. I know even get some time each week for me.
If you’d like some help or advice, please send me an email to salford.carers@gaddum.org.uk, or you can speak to one of my team by calling 0161 834 6069.
