Welcome to Gloucestershire Carers Hub
Gloucestershire Carers Hub supports unpaid Carers throughout the county of Gloucestershire.
We cover the following areas:
- Gloucester
- Cheltenham
- Forest of Dean
- Tewkesbury
- Cotswolds
- Stroud
- If you support someone who lives in Gloucestershire but you live out of county
You maybe be supporting someone with physical or emotional needs, they could be living independently from you but require your support on a daily or weekly basis. This could be due to ill health, frailty, mental health or due to an addiction. They may also live in residential care/ support but you remain an active part of their support network.
There is no minimum requirement for the number of hours which you are supporting someone for.
You may be supporting them:
- Via the telephone offering emotional support
- Taking someone to appointments
- Supporting with cooking, cleaning, shopping and other daily tasks
- Assisting with dressing, cleaning and other personal care needs
- Going in to check on someone regularly
Whatever you do to support someone else you are a Carer even if you don’t think of yourself as one.
The individual who you are supporting could be:
- A family member; spouse, husband, wife, child, adult child or partner
- A friend
- A neighbour
- An ex-partner
Whoever you are supporting we are here to offer advice, information and support to you to enable you to think about your needs whilst offering support to someone else.
If there are a number of people supporting someone, we welcome anyone providing support to someone to register with us to access information, support and our services.
