ANYONE could be a carer, a 15-year-old girl looking after a parent with a long<br />

term health condition, a 40-year-old man caring for his partner who has terminal<br />

cancer or an 80-year-old woman looking after her husband who has Alzheimer's<br />

disease.<br />

We link into a variety of services, both statutory and voluntary. With our network<br />

partners we aim to ensure that <strong>the</strong> information and advice we provide is current<br />

and purposeful, to help keep carers caring in <strong>Sefton</strong>.<br />

As part of our <strong>Carer</strong> Support Team we have a dedicated <strong>Carer</strong> Support Officer<br />
