Welcome to our 2024 Christmas countdown calendar of kindness, warmth, wellness and community spirit! Each day until Christmas we will be sharing info on how to help one another stay safe and well.
Today we focus on support for carers.
If you're an adult or young person who cares for someone who couldn’t cope without your support, there is help available for you.
Caring Together Warwickshire offers wellbeing support for all carers, regardless of age.
Save the date!
Next year, we will be welcoming carers at the next Caring Together Warwickshire Conference, which is being held on 12 March 2025 at The Benn Hall in Rugby.
This conference will be an opportunity to bring carers and carer services together, and will include guest speakers and stalls from providers such as Age UK, Healthwatch, and Alzheimer’s Society, who will be available to give further information about local offers of support. There will also be round table discussions to discuss relevant topics.
To support all to attend we can provide support with transport issues and can arrange transport to and from the venue. For carers who would like to bring their cared for to the conference, there will be a breakout area where cared for can take part in some fun activities and games while the carer attends the conference.
Further details and booking information will be promoted in the new year, and if you would like to receive an invite please email: peoplestrategyandcommissioning@warwickshire.gov.uk
