Carers

A carer is someone who helps a family member, partner or friend who needs support due to illness, disability or addiction. Carers do this without getting paid. If you’re under 18, you are called a young carer

Anyone can become a carer, and often it just happens. They care out of love, kindness, or a sense of duty for the person who needs them. 

We offer information, advice and a range of services for carers across the Borough, including the Walsall Carers Hub.

We also provide support through carer's assessments, help for young carers, and community events.
