Caring for someone
Do you look after a partner, relative or friend with a long-term physical or mental health condition, age related difficulties, disability or addiction, who could not manage without your support?
We support and empower you to live a fulfilling life alongside your caring role.
We can help you by:
Supporting you to access a Carer’s Assessment
Information and advice focused on your needs
Providing a Kent Carer’s Emergency Card
Support to take a break
Linking you to local organisations
Support on hospital discharge
Forums to ensure your voice is heard
Peer support groups, training and more

There are many reasons you may have to start caring for someone, and this can happen to anyone at any stage in their life. Research suggests that 65% of adults in the UK have cared for a loved one at some point in their life.
We understand that you may not think of yourself as a carer, but if you’re aged 16 and over and provide care and support to adult (18 and over), then our carers’ service is for you.
