Do you provide care for a loved one, neighbour or friend? This event is for you!
Caring doesn’t have to mean full-time support – maybe you check in, help with errands, or offer companionship. However you care, you and those you support are warmly invited to our free Carers Wellbeing Day Event – a wonderful opportunity to relax, connect with others, access support, and enjoy creative activities together.
Enjoy a free buffet lunch, gentle QiGong, mindfulness art sessions, and find out more about how you could access a Carers Grant (up to £300).
Join us Wednesday 19th November for our Carers Wellbeing Day Event, held in partnership with Age Cymru Gwent and Blaenau Gwent Council. This special day is all about celebrating the amazing difference carers make in the lives of those they support.
Transport can be arranged for you and the person you care for, so don’t miss out!
The event will run alongside our weekly Sunflower Café – a dementia-friendly space that welcomes carers, those they care for, and anyone looking for company. It’s a warm, safe place to relax, share a cuppa, connect with others, and take part in creative activities.
