Welcome!

You are now entering the best source of general information and support for carers in Hyndburn & Ribble Valley.

You are a carer if you provide a substantial amount of unpaid help and support to a family member or friend who couldn’t manage on their own due to sickness, age or disability.

Caring can be a very difficult, demanding and all consuming task, no matter how close you are to the person you care for. Caring can affect your health, making you feel tired, frustrated, stressed, angry and feeling guilty, leaving you with very little time for yourself.

Carers Link provides information and support to carers and young carers throughout Hyndburn and the Ribble Valley.

We provide a wide range of support including information, training, a listening ear and the opportunity to ensure that carers voices and views are heard.
