Rethink Mental Illness Oxfordshire Carers Support Services
Overview
Oxfordshire Carers Support Services, part of Rethink Mental Illness provide one-to-one emotional and practical support to adult mental health carers throughout the county. They believe that carers play an invaluable role in the recovery of the person being cared for. They feel carers should be acknowledged, valued and supported to live a life outside of their caring role.
Rethink supports a number of support groups for people caring for family members or friends with mental health problems. The workers also signpost people to a carers course within Oxfordshire Recovery college, as well as training which could be beneficial for those in a caring role.
