The support available for carers and the people they care for will be in the spotlight when Age UK Shropshire Telford & Wrekin hosts a free drop-in event in Shrewsbury this month.

Alzheimer’s Society and Shropshire Carers Support, a dedicated carers support team within Shropshire Council, will join with Age UK Shropshire Telford & Wrekin to offer a host of important information and advice to mark Carers Rights Day on 21 November.

The drop-in runs from 10.00am-3.00pm at the Age UK Shropshire Telford & Wrekin offices at Bellstone, Shrewsbury.

‘Whether you’re new to caring or you’ve been caring for a while, please come along to our free advice session,’ said Emma Wilde, Age UK Shropshire Telford & Wrekin’s Wellbeing Services Manager. ‘There will be lots of good advice on offer and it’ll be great to chat with people about the sorts of support available.’

A spokesperson for Shropshire Carers Support said: ‘Our vision is to enable carers to live their best lives by providing timely and quality information and support.’
