"My support worker gave me the strength to carry on. She took away a lot of the fear and isolation when I was looking after my husband during the last months of his illness."

The Carers Federation is dedicated to supporting carers of all ages and the people they look after. It is now a diverse organisation offering a wide range of services to individuals and the wider community.

Whether you're a young person looking after a family member or someone who provides a daily lifeline for a friend or neighbour, we'll provide practical and emotional help that can make a real difference to your life. We also offer counselling and mentoring services and carry out community development work and advocacy. We're actively involved in lobbying, working hard to make politicians and decision-makers aware of the essential role played by carers across the UK.

Our team of support workers can put you in touch with a whole range of specialist services and help you to meet other carers close to where you live.
