We are raising money for the amazing charity we work for called Carers of East Lothian (CoEL). Supporting unpaid carers in East Lothian (18 yrs plus), who are caring for a loved one, friend, neighbour or a child (ren). Who have additonal support needs, disabilities, mental health or long or short term health conditions. We offer a variety of supports for unpaid carers in East Lothian. This includes, 1:1 support, support groups, men's group, parent/carer support, benefits support, counselling, legal advice and befriending. Time for me grants and opportunities to give unpaid carers a break from caring, carers assessments , training and wellbeing groups and activities. We also provide post care and bereavement support.
