Carers First Hackney

If you're an unpaid carer, aged 18 and over, supporting someone in Hackney, we’re here to help with online help and advice, as well as 1-2-1 practical and emotional support.

From 1 April 2025 we will no longer deliver this service and carers need to contact City & Hackney Carers Centre from that date.

Who do I contact for support during the transition?

Until 31st March 2025, you can continue contacting Carers First as usual. From 1 April 2025, all enquiries should go to City & Hackney Carers Centre:

📞 Phone: 02085330951
