Carers Direct offers a range of information on work, education, financial and legal issues, help for young carers, and keeping healthy. We provide a guide to caring, and information on how carers can access services for the person they're caring for.
Our advisors can also signpost to specialist agencies for casework, advocacy, representation, and counselling in relation to legal, medical and financial matters.
