There are many organisations that offer support, information and advice to Carers, but the vast majority are predominantly there for the person with the disability, certainly they focus on specific areas. We Love Carers exists to reduce carer isolation, ensuring they have access to the support they need, enabling them to fulfil their caring role and achieve their full potential. We Love Carers is run by carers for carers. We Love Carers focuses on the Carer, filling in gaps and working hard to empower them so they can lead the happiest, most rewarding and fulfilling lives whilst reaching their full potential. This will help them to be effective carers for the people they love and look after and be involved in decisions and making choices that affect their lives. We do all this by focusing on three key areas, information, support and advice. Many carers are isolated and don’t know where to turn for help. We Love Carers aims to change that for Carers in the Dudley borough.
We provide a one-to-one play-scheme called CHAOS set in a school, which is designed for children with disabilities. Although it is one-to-one care, team leaders and play managers will be there to provide medical and toiletry needs, and play activities.
