If you care for a child or young person<br />
who is under 18 and has a physical<br />
disability, learning disability or<br />
emotional/behavioral condition, either<br />
diagnosed or undiagnosed, then Sefton<br />
<strong>Carer</strong>s Centre can provide free support.<br />
We currently offer the following services<br />
to all parent carers living in Sefton:<br />
The <strong>Carer</strong>s Support Team currently<br />
facilitates groups for parent carers at<br />
Netherton Family Wellbeing Centre<br />
(Thursdays) and at The Life Rooms<br />
(Wednesdays) in Southport (term time<br />
only).<br />
These groups are a great way to get<br />
support, information, and hear about<br />
other people's experiences - guidance<br />
can be given around assessment<br />
pathways and access to services through<br />
comprehensive signposting.<br />
Parent <strong>Carer</strong> Support<br />
The purpose of these support groups is to<br />
improve the health and wellbeing of<br />
parent carers as well as provide<br />
information and advice from other<br />
organisations that work with parent<br />
carers and their children in Sefton.
