This Carers Week, our Welfare Caseworker, Irene Ramsden, tells us why this network of unsung heroes around the UK need more support. With summer right around the corner, families across the UK are undoubtedly looking forward to spending some quality time together following a difficult year. So we've gathered a few ideas for you to enjoy together this Half Term. Our incredible carers have been working tirelessly over the last year - and we want to say thank you. So join us for a brew and a quiz this Carers Week in honour of them all. While many of us may be looking forward to mixing with our social circles again, some may struggle to adjust to normality as quickly. Here, Psychological Therapist Kerri Wright shares tips for overcoming those fears. Welfare Services Lead Carrie Pearce explains how ditching technology and writing a letter to someone you care about can have major benefits on your wellbeing.
