Rethink Carers Service offers a monthly online Q&A and support group for family members and partners of people living with mental health challenges. This friendly and informal session provides a safe space to ask questions, share experiences, and receive guidance from professionals and peers.
Held via Zoom, the group runs for 1.5 hours and is designed to help carers feel heard, supported, and better informed. Whether you're new to caring or have been supporting someone for years, you're welcome to join and connect with others who truly understand.
Please note: this group is for carers only and not for the people they support.
