New Northamptonshire Unpaid Carer Guide Launched

A brand-new Northamptonshire Unpaid Carer Guide has been launched to offer vital information, support and resources for unpaid carers across the county. As many people become unpaid carers without warning or training, the guide is designed to empower carers with the information and support they need, when they need it most. Whether you are new to caring or have been supporting someone for years, this guide is for you.
The guide brings together, in one place:
Clear guidance on navigating your caring role
Practical tips and advice for day-to-day challenges
Information on local services and support
Resources to help carers look after their own wellbeing
To ensure it reaches as many carers as possible, the guide is available in multiple formats, including Interactive e-book, large print, and plain text for screen readers. It is also available in seven languages - Gujarati, Polish, Romanian, Portuguese (Brazil), Punjabi, Spanish and Urdu - and can be translated into other languages on request. Please contact Northamptonshire Carers 01933 677907 or email admin@northamptonshire-carers.org to request a translation.
Residents and organisations across Northamptonshire are encouraged to share the guide widely to ensure it reaches every unpaid carer who could benefit from the support it offers. Please inform anyone who may be providing unpaid care. Together, we can help unpaid carers in Northamptonshire get the guidance and support they need for their essential and often challenging work.
