The Importance of Carers Getting a Break

 

It is important for carer wellbeing to be able to have breaks away from the caring role.

​

Making time, however, to catch up with friends, family or simply rest is often difficult.

 

There are many different ways to take a break and many carers will need to make  alternative arrangements for the person they care for.
