Supporting carers in communities across Lincolnshire


This year, Carers FIRST and Lincolnshire County Council are running events across the county to help the estimated 84,000 carers in Lincolnshire.
Coun Patricia Bradwell OBE, Executive Member for Adult Care, said: “Caring can be both rewarding and satisfying, it can also teach people new skills and help them realise potential they may never thought they had.

“We know it can cause ill health, poverty and social isolation. This is why the focus for Carers Week 2019 is getting carers connected in their communities to the right support and information.”
‘Carers cuppa’ events are being held across the county, which will provide an opportunity for those people who care for a loved one to socialise with other carers over a free tea/coffee and to find out how different services can support them.
All events are free and no booking is required, for more information visit the Carers FIRST website.
