Carers

Do you look after someone who can't get by without your help?

If the answer is yes, have you told us that you are a Carer?

If you are an unpaid Carer who provides care and support to a partner, relative, friend or neighbour who wouldn’t be able to get by on their own, we’d really appreciate your answers to our Carers Questionnaire.
The GP surgery is here to help you and your answers will tell us how we can best support you as a carer, both now and in the future. Click here to complete the questionnaire electronically.

Local Support for Carers

Croydon Borough Council have lots of support mechanisms in place for Carers in our area. Croydon Carers Strategy is a useful document for anyone who is a Carer in Croydon and outlines how to access support so that our Carers are cared for.

The Carers Trust is a national organisation that also supports Carers, for further information on how they can help, please click here.
