I’m not a Carer - its’ just what I do!
Do you look after a family member or friend who needs help as a result of disability, physical or mental illness, ageing or substance misuse?
If so, you are a carer!
Being an unpaid carer can affect your own health and lead to social isolation.
If nobody knows you are a Carer it will be harder to get the support you need.
Let your GP practice know that you’re a carer so they can support you better.
Northamptonshire Carers provides information and advice, and all kinds of free services which could help you.
