We meet monthly to offer each other mutual support, advice and understanding in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The Forum is open to past and present mental health Carers. We cater for Carers living in and around Derby City, Amber Valley, Erewash and South Derbyshire. To help carers feel less isolated and experience an improved quality of life and levels of well-being. To influence health professionals to ensure that services meet carers' needs. |
