Community for Carers Fair for Carers Week

11am - 3:30pm

Southend-on-Sea City Council Civic Centre, Victoria Avenue, Southend-on-Sea, Essex, SS2 6ER

We're delighted to invite you to this year's Carers Week, Community for Carers Fair, a dedicated event celebrating and supporting unpaid carers across Southend. This year, we're bringing together a wide range of trusted services from across Southend-on-Sea, each hosting a marketplace stall where carers can connect, gather information, and discover the support available to them locally. Whether you're looking for advice, practical help, wellbeing services, or simply the chance to network with others who understand your journey, there will be something for everyone. In addition to our vibrant marketplace, we're offering: four interactive workshops, bookable massage sessions - an opportunity to relax, recharge, and take some well-deserved time for yourself, a welcoming space to meet other carers and share experiences.

This event is all about recognising the invaluable role carers play in our community and ensuring you feel supported, informed, and appreciated. We look forward to welcoming you for a day of connection, learning, and selfcare.

Please book your place via email southend@carersfirst.org.uk.
