5.4 Million Unpaid Carers<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In the UK there are 5.4million unpaid carers. In Wales there are 370,000 unpaid carers who support a loved one with an illness or disability.<\/p>\n

Looking after someone can be very demanding. There are times when carers will feel tired and alone. Taking care of your own wellbeing could help with the emotional and physical demands of caring. If you are a carer and want a short stroll, fresh air and a chance to chat and have a coffee, meet us at Barry Island at 10.30am on the last Thursday of every month.<\/p>\n
