The Carers Trust website says that:

“Family carers are people who, without payment, look after relatives, friends or neighbours who could not manage alone due to illness, disability, old age, mental health needs or substance dependency. Despite their huge voluntary contribution to society many family carers experience significant disadvantages as a result of their caring role.”

You don’t have to go through it alone.

The Carers Trust Heart of England can provide information, advice and support – practical and emotional – for people who are caring for others.

What kind of support?

The Carers Trust support services include:

  • Carer Wellbeing Service 
  • Practical support 
  • Coventry Young Carers
  • Training and Learning opportunities

Register online today with the Carers Trust

Or by phone: 02476 632972

You needn’t be at crisis point, you may not even think of yourself as a carer. It may be for advice, or just someone to talk to.

Enter and view visits to care homes in 2024

Read our latest enter and view reports on care homes we have visited in 2024.

Alongside these visits we do lots of work 'behind the scenes', which includes researching, planning, and working in partnership with the Care Quality Commission and Warwickshire County Council to make sure we use your feedback to improve care. Not all feedback will end with a visit but all feedback is used to make a difference.

Keeping well during the winter

Cold weather can make some health problems worse and even lead to serious complications, especially if you are older, or if you have a long-term condition.
