Carers

The Walsall Carers’ Centre is a charitable company that brings together statutory and voluntary sector services together who can support carers. Our aim is to provide real support to carers within the Borough of Walsall, and give their needs and their contributions the recognition and status they deserve. We can provide you with a ‘listening ear,’ someone to talk to who understands your emotional problems.

A carer is anyone who appears to have a need for support as a result looking after a relative, neighbour or friend. Such care doesn’t have to be full time, nor do you have to be living with the person you support. If you or someone you know provides unpaid care for a friend or family member who due to an illness, disability, mental health problem including caring for those living with an addiction who cannot cope without his or her support.

Caring will affect us all at some point in our lives. We’ll be here for you when that happens. With your help, we can be there for the 6,000 people who start looking after someone each day.
