This section deals with information for family carers. A family carer is someone whose life is restricted because they are looking after a friend, relative, partner or any person who cannot manage without help because of illness, age, or a disability of any kind.

We include here brief information about sources or help and support for you as family carer:

Age Concern Publications and Factsheets provide detailed and useful information for yourself and the person you are caring for.

Our local Carers Information Guide gives information about who is available in Suffolk to help you.

Useful Contacts & Links provides details of other agencies and websites able to help with caring matters.
