Caring can impact every area of a person's life, with our annual survey revealing that locally 85% of carers feel alone and isolated in their caring role, and 97% carers feel stressed. The activities programme enables carers to have a break from their caring role, meet and spend time with other people in similar situations, learn more about the support they can receive, and have some fun.

With the cost of living crisis causing 80% of local carers to say they are worried about their finances, this may be the only chance they get to have a break, as carers have to cut back to be able to afford the care and support of the person they care for.

All the activities we deliver are free of charge to carers, but we rely entirely on donations to deliver them.

If, like us, you believe carers deserve a break from their caring role, please consider donating to our campaign today.

You can also donate via post by writing a cheque to 'Care for the Carers' and sending to Highlight House, 8 St Leonards Road, Eastbourne, BN21 3UH- clearly marking the donation for the activities campaign.

If you would like to donate via BACS transfer please contact 01323 738390 for details.
