Balancing work with caring for a loved one can be challenging, but you’re not alone. Join the Bankside Carers’ Network for this breakfast event with Carers UK, the national charity supporting unpaid carers. Over coffee, tea, and pastries, you’ll hear practical advice and discover resources available to support people looking after family members or friends.
This is a chance to connect with others in similar situations, share experiences, and pick up helpful guides like Looking After Someone, Caring Magazine, and Carers UK’s self-advocacy toolkit. Whether you’re supporting ageing parents, family members with additional needs, or friends who rely on you, this session offers both information and community.
The event starts at 8:30 am with breakfast and the opportunity to connect with others, followed by the Carers UK presentation from 9:00 am to 9:30 am (approximately). This will leave time for questions and informal discussion until the event ends.
Come along, grab a pastry, and take away tips and tools to help you manage caring alongside your work life.
