Join us on the last Wednesday of every month, 10:00am–11:00am, for a friendly, peer-led space where Carers can talk openly, get advice, share experiences, and connect with others who understand.

As the forum grows, we’ll also be welcoming guest speakers and information sessions to help you access even more support and guidance.

The first event is on 28th January, we hope to see you there!
