About us
Who we are
Carer Support Wiltshire is a registered charity (Charity no: 1092762) that supports all unpaid carers, from five years upwards, in Wiltshire and Dorset. Our aim is to create a society that understands and supports unpaid carers. We operate in Dorset under the name Carer Support Dorset.
We help carers to access services, information, education and training, respite, and breaks from their caring role. We ensure they have a voice that is heard and work with health and social care professionals and employers to raise carer awareness and develop best practice.
We work towards a future where:
- Unpaid carers have better health and well-being.
- Unpaid carers can make choices about their caring role and access the right support and services for the person they care for.
- Unpaid carers needs, their voices and the contribution they make to society are recognised and valued.
