A carer is a person of any age who provides unpaid help and support to a relative, partner, friend or neighbour, of any age, who has an illness or long-term condition and cannot manage without the carer’s help.
We would like to invite carers to join us at one of our workshops. As a carer, your experiences are vital in helping to shape future services for carers in North Northamptonshire, and we want to hear your views.
What to expect on the day:
• A warm friendly welcome.
• An outline of what we wish to achieve from the workshop.
• Interactive feedback from carers via group work.
• Summary and next steps.
