Exciting New Courses For Carers

Caring with Confidence is a free programme of flexible sessions for carers to help make a positive difference to their lives and that of the person they care for.

The programme is made up of seven individual sessions and carers can choose how, when, and in what order they want to do them. They can do as many or as few as they like, depending on their own needs and circumstances. The only requirement is that they attend the introductory session - Finding Your Way - as this helps carers look at what matters to them and to decide which of the other six sessions they might want to go to.

Subjects covered include Coping with Stress, Accessing Resources and Maximising your income, How to be fit for life and caring, and Getting the best from communicating with professionals.

Forthcoming Dates and Venues:

Seven Weekly Sessions:

Wed 25th August to Wed 29th September, 1 - 4pm at @Symes Community Building, Hartcliffe
Mon 6th Sept to Mon 18th Oct, 1 - 4pm, The Park Centre, Kingswood
