A carer is anyone that provides support to someone who could not cope without help. This person may be a family member, friend, or neighbour. This support could involve:
- Helping with personal care, such as washing.
- Supporting with cooking and household tasks.
- Providing companionship and emotional support.
- Helping with appointments or managing medication
At our practice, we understand the important role carers play, and we’re here to help you too.
- Offering flexible appointments where possible
- Helping you access local support services
- Keeping you informed about vaccinations and health checks for carers
- Providing information and advice tailored to your situation
Please talk to a member of our team today.
For more information please speak to our Carers Champion – Yohansa Welikala.
Take care of yourself as well.

How to get a Carers Assessment
This is a free assessment. It aims to understand your needs as a carer and to identify what support is available to you. In some cases, you may be eligible to receive a personal budget or carer’s grant. This will provide you with financial support.
