Help for carers

Am I a carer?

If you look after a relative, friend or neighbour, providing essential support to someone unable to do everything for themselves then you are a carer.

Cheshire West and Chester Council is committed to supporting carers and can offer help and support to you. 

Support is also available locally through Cheshire Carers' Centre. The centre is based in Northwich - freephone 0800 0850307

Carer's assessment

We carry out carer's assessments to find out the best ways to help you cope as a carer, and help you in your caring role.

Contact our Access Team for more information or to arrange your assessment.
