Carers Support
It is important that we know if you are a carer so that we can make sure you receive information, services and the help that is available.
- Do you look after someone who is sick, disabled or elderly/frail?
- Would they struggle to live in their home without your help?
- Are they a parent, child, partner, relative, friend or neighbour?
- Are you – or is someone you know – providing much-needed care for a loved one?
- Are you unpaid and acting voluntarily?
- Are you juggling work alongside your caring role?
If so, you are a carer and we would like to support you.
We can provide you with up to date information on available support to make things easier.
We can put you in touch with the Reading & West Berkshire Carers Hub who support carers on a day to day basis in a huge variety of ways, personal to your circumstances.
As a carer you will be invited for an annual flu vaccination at the surgery.
As a carer your health and well being is very important and you will be invited for a health check (if you haven’t had one in the last five years).
