Help for carers from Caring Together

Caring Together is a network partner of Carers Trust and has grown significantly over the past ten years, providing more services and more help for family carers and their families across Cambridgeshire, Peterborough and Norfolk. In 2016-17, Carers Trust Cambridgeshire, Peterborough, Norfolk provided over 59,500 individual breaks for carers of adults, young carers and families of children with disabilities. We are the leading local fully Care Quality Commission compliant organisation providing respite care specifically for family carers.

We help family carers through:

• quality respite care so they can leave their loved one to go shopping, go to the hairdressers or just have a rest, company, outings and personal and social care
• groups for all ages, including carers groups, young carers and short breaks for disabled children and young people, including those with autism and ASD.

Across the UK, Carers Trust Network Partners employ over 7,500 trained professionals who work with over 514,500 individuals and their families, helping family carers make a life of their own outside caring.
