We are here to support you if you care for someone who is receiving adult mental health services. Our support workers provide an opportunity for you to talk, be listened to and understood.
We understand how life changing becoming a carer is - the emotional strain, responsibility and how isolating and overwhelming it can feel.
We realise the important role carers play and we want to ensure that their experiences, concerns and opinions are shared and acknowledged, in line with our Carer Strategy and the Triangle of Care.
We are recovery focused and help carers, family and friends build on their own strengths and aspirations. We also support and deliver behavioural family therapy.
We provide support to individuals and groups of carers and increase access to carers' assessments. Find out more about carers' assessments on the NHS website.
We work with other services and agencies to help identify carers across Nottingham City and promote carer issues.
Our service is available to carers of service users registered with a GP in Nottingham City.
We receive internal referrals from other services. You can also self-refer directly to the service by contacting the team on 0115 9691300 extension: 16036.
Our site offers disabled access and free parking.
We run a carers' group monthly on a Friday, from 11am - 1pm.
The group is held at:
The Carers Federation
21-23 Pelham Road
Nottingham
NG5 1AP
