Carer support groups

A carer support group is a small group of carers which meets in a relaxed, informal environment where they can:

• discuss and learn from others who share their situation
• have an opportunity to support each other and help lessen feelings of isolation
• receive social, emotional and information support.

Princess Royal Trust for Carers

For online support visit The Princess Royal Trust for Carers "Carers Community". This is a discussion forum where carers can exchange a whole range of views, information and tips with other carers. Anyone can read the messages on the boards but you will need to register if you want to post your own messages or enter the chat room.

Princess Royal Trust for Carers has centres throughout Scotland and, in addition to providing support, they can direct you to local carer support groups, see Princess Royal Trust for Carers Scottish centres
