City Carer Support Services
We are here to support you if you care for someone who uses adult mental health services.
Our Carer Support Workers give you time to talk. They will listen to you and help you feel understood.
Becoming a carer can change your life. It can be stressful and emotional. You may feel isolated or overwhelmed, and this is very common.
We recognise the important role carers play. We make sure your views, concerns and experiences are heard and valued.
Our service is recovery focused. We help carers, family members and friends build on their own strengths and goals.
We offer:
- One-to-one support for carers
- Monthly Carers Support Group sessions
- Signposting support
- Help to access Carers Assessments
You can read more in our leaflet: City Carers Support Service
We also work with other services and organisations across Nottingham City. This helps us identify carers and raise awareness of carers' needs and issues.
