Carers comments about groups

Carers tell us that coming to a group can make a big difference to them

This Evening Group has been very helpful to me as from the contact I have been able to self refer to Social Prescribing and now receiving support every week, thank you and it’s another way to keep in touch with the outside world in these difficult times, if you can’t get out much.

Zoom meetings are OK but feel face to face meetings are better and allow more personal conversations to take place.

Love the free flow and mix of carers on Tuesday evenings.

Its good to catch up with other carers and hear how they're getting on and discuss our worries and problems

It's been brilliant in lockdown as my husband was shielding at first and I seemed to have no other contact with the outside to start with but CiB were quick at setting up their zoom groups

I have met other carers from other areas which has been helpful and interesting and i would miss so much not having our catch ups

We love this because we know all the people in real life and on Zoom and my husband often joins in.
