12 Carers Soup n Support Carers are people who look after relatives or friends with long term illnesses or disabilities which can be mental or physical. Many carers don t think of themselves in this way, they are a husband, wife, partner, parent, son or daughter. Some are not relatives but friends or neighbours. Do you care for someone with an illness or disability and would like information to make your caring role easier and meet people in similar situations for mutual support? If the answer to these questions is yes, please come along and enjoy a delicious soup lunch, you will be most welcome. First Thursday of every month 12noon 2pm July 5th - Eyes and Ears August 2nd - Summer Film Show (from 11am) September 6th - Ask Us Wirral October 6th - I care, Community Meals November 1st - Merseytravel Travel assistance December 6th - Christmas Party (from 11am) If you are unsure about coming along on your own, please contact us beforehand as we will ensure you are welcomed at the door.
