The Carer's Forum

We launched our Carer’s Forum on Tuesday 28 May 2024.

The session will run from 1pm to 3pm at the Civic Suite or via Microsoft Teams.

They will then run monthly on the last Tuesday of the month for six months and then the frequency will be reviewed.

The group is open to:

  • Carers as defined by the Care Act are 'an adult who provides or intends to provide care for another adult (an "adult needing care")'
  • Young Carers are included and welcomed to join the Carer's Forum

If you are interested in attending, please email Proud To Care Lewisham

Carers Trust

Carers Trust is a major charity for, with and about carers. They work to improve support, services and recognition for anyone living with the challenges of caring, unpaid, for a family member or friend who is ill, frail, disabled or has mental health or addiction problems. Their vision is that unpaid carers count and can access the help they need to live their lives.
