TRIPS AND EVENTS

Carers need to take a break from caring.  Taking a break can help you to recharge your batteries and can prevent ill health as a result of tiredness and stress.  We run a year round calendar of organised trips out and events to help you to take a break with other carers.  They are open to carers and former carers whose caring role has ended in the last two years.

 

TRIPS AND EVENTS BOOKING PROCEDURE

A £5 deposit is required to secure your place on all trips and events this deposit is then refundable to all Carers who attend, the deposit will be returned on the day of the trip.

 

To secure your place on each trip you can provisionally book by telephone but then a £5 deposit must be received by the centre within 14 days of putting your name down, otherwise your place may be offered to another carer.

 

We have also introduced a ‘book from’ date, these will be shown on the newsletter advert and on the information below.  The booking forms for each trip will not be opened until a few weeks before the trip actually takes place.
