WHO IS A CARER?

A carer is anyone who provides care and support for another person. There are over 32,000 people locally in similar situations. Whatever your circumstances, we hope you find this website useful.

An ‘Easy Read’ leaflet has been developed for people with learning disabilities. Click here to view it

ARE YOU A CARER?

A carer provides care and support for a parent, relative, a child or a friend who has a disability, an age related problem, mental or physical illness or alcohol or drug problems.

WHO DO YOU CARE FOR?

Does the person you care for and support have a disability?

  • An illness or health condition.
  • A mental health problem.
  • Age related difficulties.
  • An alcohol or drug problem.

WE CAN HELP

For some people, becoming a carer may be a gradual process, for others it may happen overnight. Whatever the circumstances, it is important that carers are recognised and supported.

If you need help, support or information contact Carers Together to talk confidentially
to someone who understands your situation.

We have been made aware of a scam that may be using the Warm Homes programme name. The incident involved an older person who is believed to have received a letter that appeared to come from Age UK asking for bank details to pay in a Warm Homes Discount/Winter fuel payment.

If you or someone you know receives a letter, please remember:

•Age UK does not pay out Warm Homes Discounts (WHD) or Winter Fuel Payments.
•People eligible for Core Group WHD will have already been contacted by DWP if they are eligible.
•DWP also pays the Winter Fuel Payment
•If a person is part of the Broader Group for WHD, they must apply to their energy supplier and the discount will be a rebate on their energy bill. The energy company will never contact the person offering the WHD.
