At Carer Support Dorset, we understand the unique challenges and responsibilities that young adult carers face. Sometimes it is nice to know there are others out there that understand your situation and are on hand to help, that’s why we offer a range of services tailored specifically to support you on your journey. Here’s what you can expect when you register with us:
– 1:1 support: We understand that each young adult carer has their own unique needs, goals, and dreams. That’s why we offer individualised support with our Senior Carer Adviser. Whether you need guidance on your future plans, like work or further education, or simply need someone to talk to, our adviser is here to lend a listening ear and provide support along the way. You can find out more about our 1:1 support via our Transition Support leaflet here.
– Regular contact: We believe in building lasting relationships with our young adult carers so our Senior Carer Adviser is always just a phone call or email away. If you are 18+ ensure that you receive regular updates on upcoming events, workshops, and resources by signing up for our newsletter! If you are 16 – 17, keep an eye on our Whats On page, and socials for exclusive CSD events!
– Bi-monthly Q&A sessions : Can’t make it to our face-to-face meet-ups? No worries! We also organize virtual Q&A sessions to cater to all your scheduling needs. We have guest speakers covering a range of different topics so there’s always something for everyone.
