Are
you caring for someone with a mental illness?
The term 'mental
health carer' means anyone providing vital help and support to someone
with mental health issues. With very little information and advice provided carers are
often left feeling isolated overwhelmed
forgotten and confused.
When someone becomes mentally ill it is often difficult to understand, hard to discuss
it can mean major adjustments to family life, finances and social activities for all involved.
About Us

group of mental health carers and ex-carers holding forum meetings
and support groups (Stress Busters) at various locations
throughout Derbyshire.

health .
