Thank you to everyone who came along
Unpaid carers in Hackney enjoyed a fun celebration with Carers First.
Carers First were able to provide information and advice across all areas of your caring experience.
We held a range of interactive workshops, including relaxing pampering and face painting. Carers First also provided lunch for carers who attended and we all enjoyed chatting and having a fun time together.
Over 90 carers attended the event and accessed information and support on maximising their income, practical help, emotional support, healthy eating, taking breaks and claiming free digital data; along with enjoying some ‘me time’ to have massages and hand/feet treatments.
We were joined by Carers First Chief Executive, Alison Taylor, Commissioner, Lesley Hill, Councillor Kennedy and a range of local partner organisations including Health Watch, Alzheimer Society, Made in Hackney and Roj Women, amongst others.
