Are you a carer?
If you look after someone or provide unpaid support to a relative or friend who could not manage without your help, then you are a carer.
The practice is keen identify carers so that we can ensure we can offer you support and flexibility when you are dealing with the practice wherever possible.
If you are a carer, please let us know.
We can also ensure that you are put in touch with Manchester City Council, who can offer you a carer’s assessment and link you into advice and support that is available for you as a carer in Manchester.

Our goal is to provide carers with a collective voice, and to provide the reassurance that someone is listening. Just knowing that someone cares can be a lifeline. With our support groups, training, mentoring and fun activities and advocacy for carers we aim to be that lifeline.
