Gateshead
Carers Association exists to relieve the stresses experienced
by carers in the Borough of Gateshead - in particular by providing
information, advice and support services to carers, to help
them and their dependents.
A
carer is someone who looks after a relative or friend who
is ill, disabled, elderly, or in need of emotional support.
You may be a parent, husband or wife, son or daughter, friend
or neighbour but if you support someone on a regular basis,
you are also a carer. Being a carer often brings its own rewards
but it can also be very hard work, both physically and emotionally.
Carers need information about the services which can help
to keep them going, and may need to talk to someone who understands
how difficult it can be.
