Story

Carer Support South Lakes is an independent, local charity and network partner of Carers Trust. We provide a range of services to support and enhance the lives of unpaid carers of all ages throughout South Lakeland. There are thousands of Carers in South Lakeland. Many juggle work, school, or other commitments along with their caring role, and most dont think of themselves as Carers, nor do they realise the range of services available to help them, such as access to information, emotional support, advocacy, financial support and opportunities to take a break. Taking on a caring role can lead to feelings of isolation, frustration, depression and can result in ill health The Great North Run is an annual event that Carer Support South Lakes participates in where five volunteers raise money for unpaid Carers as well as achieving personal goals The money raised go towards 1-1 support, sitting service, wellbeing and support groups Your generosity is very gratefully appreciated, thank you
