We are a dedicated Carers organisation providing services in Merthyr Tydfil and Rhondda Cynon Taff. Our aim is to support as many carers as possible to be able to have a break from their caring role. We do this by providing well trained care support workers who take over the role of carer to enable the family carer to have some time to be themselves. Being a carer is hard, no matter how much you care for your spouse, friend or relative, it changes your life. We want to make sure we take some of the stress on ourselves from young carers, young adult carers, mums, dads, relatives. Everyone needs that break, to be able to go for a walk or meet a friend for a coffee. Without this army of unpaid carers the world would be a much poorer place and many are unrecognised as undertaking this work. We know, our staff are there taking on these roles, we make sure the same team of people visit to make our clients feel safe. We need your help, we want to be able to give more support, to as many people as we can. All our funds directly support the needs of the carer and cared for. Thanks for reading.
