Carers Count
We support unpaid carers whose loved ones are experiencing or who are in recovery from mental ill health, including those with dementia or neurodiverse conditions, experiencing problematic substance misuse, including alcohol problems, or where an individual has
a dual diagnosis involving co-existing
mental health and substance misuse issues. We provide 1:1 emotional
support, carers groups, short carer
