Our Carers Services Do you look after someone who could not manage without your help? Carers are relatives, friends or neighbours who provide support and care to a partner, child, relative, friend or neighbour who could not manage without their help.

Every year thousands of carers provide help to ill, frail and disabled people but many are not aware of the advice and support available to them.

Support for Carers

If you care for someone and you would like to find out about the support available to you or if you would like some free confidential advice we can help. We treat every Carer as an individual and help you to find the support that you need for your circumstances. We can offer you advice whether you are retired, self employed or in full time or part time employment.

Our carer support services are available to carers in Bournemouth, Poole and Dorset.  Our Carers Centre is based in Bournemouth, there are many ways that our team at the Centre can support you and the person you care for.

If you are a carer or if you would like to access information on behalf of someone else please take a look at our factsheets for carers or contact our helpline for Carers Carerslink.
