Giving support to Carers
in their own homes
Our sole aim is to allow the carer time to regain some independence and control over their own lives. This is turn helps give them the strength and energy to provide the ongoing support their dependent needs.
Our Carers Sitter Service provides free respite support and home sitting for people who are as restricted because of the 24-hour care they are providing for dependent relatives and friends.

“My wife and I have been beneficiaries of the Sitter Service for a while now. After an assessment, a volunteer sitter was assigned to us who visits one morning each week. Her visits have made a world of different; for me a period to relax, for my wife some social interaction with someone who is not me.
The charity is based and run locally for people like us, fulfilling a vital role in our community and they deserve our support. I’m so pleased I found out about them and they were able to support us.”
