Heads Up understands the critical work that carers do for their loved ones. We also understand that they need support too.
Our Carers Groups meet on a monthly basis in Wells and Wedmore and share experiences over a hot drink. Our sessions often have visiting speakers, whilst we are on hand to give advice about where to access information and services; both locally and nationally.
We would love to meet you, so please come along and join us; or ring the office for more details.
We are always keen to promote good mental health within our carers and wherever possible, we partner with local establishments to offer ‘Pamper Days’ during the year eg. at Middlewick Spa in Glastonbury, Strode College in Street and The Ammerdown Centre near Radstock.
For more details regarding the help available for carers, please see our local services page.
