Nice to know you’re not alone in things you are facing.
Thank you so much for the amazing session, it was really helpful, a lot of information. I learnt a lot! Topic Dealing with Sleep Difficulties (CAMHS).
Good to join in, can find out about a lot of things, other carers shared their views. I found out about sensory issues which I didn't know about before.
Have found the group very useful. When I started, I didn't know what to do, where to go. Now I have hope and light as I've been pointed in the right direction. The way we discuss our stories has helped me see my story is not as dire as I thought.
I find the groups therapeutic.
With groups like this, you go out and find out about things and bring them back and share them with the group.
I have joined the group because I just want to find myself again.
Comments from a carer who had been successful in securing support from the LA for her child in school "It's all the support I've been getting from The Carers Centre. When I started coming, I had no idea where to go, who to call, so thank you so much".
