Resources for Unpaid Carers
Online Resource for Carers
A community resource called Dewis Cymru has been developed to provide a directory of local services and resources. The directory will give people easy access to information on services provided by local authorities, health boards, third sector and the independent sector.
Useful Publications for Unpaid Carers
The Carers Handbook has now been split into individual information factsheets. They are published by Cardiff Council, Vale of Glamorgan Council and Cardiff and Vale University Health Board. These provide basic information on most things carers need to know in both the English and Welsh language. More language options are available on request. Further detailed information can be provided by the organisations mentioned throughout the factsheets and our web pages.
