East Cheshire Carers Hub provides information, advice and a wide range of specialist support services designed to help adult and young Carers continue in their caring role for as long as they choose and reduce the impact the caring role can have on their own health and wellbeing.

- Support to access community, health and wellbeing services
- Access to activities, training, and much more
- An application to the Living Well Fund (subject to eligibility)
- Additional support for the person who is being cared for (eg Respite Care)
For young carers we can also:
- Help carers and families think about what would make the difference
