UNPAID CARERS: Harlow Support Group

What are these groups?
Action for Family Carers is working in partnership with Essex Carers Support to provide a range of Carer Support Groups across West (Epping, Harlow and Uttlesford districts) and Northeast Essex (Colchester & Tendring districts.
Our Carer Support Groups provide a safe and understanding space you can connect with other carers, share experiences, and find support from others who truly understand what they’re going through.
What are the benefits of joining a Support Group?
Emotional Support: We know that caring can be emotionally taxing. Our support groups offer a safe environment where you can express your feelings, fears, and frustrations without judgment.
Practical Advice and Information Sharing: Fellow carers often have invaluable tips and strategies for managing daily challenges associated with caring. Whether it’s navigating the healthcare system or finding respite care, our groups offer practical advice based on real-life experiences.
What should I expect?
Our Carer Support Groups typically meet regularly either in person. Meetings might sometimes involve guest speakers, or themed topics based on the needs and interests of the group members. Or we might just get together for a chat and a cuppa. Some of our groups meet online and a few meet outside and take a walk.
How can I join?
Joining a Carer Support Groups is easy. Simply register with Action for Family Carers by making a self-referral. We’ll connect you with your local group.
