About: South Eastern Health & Social Care Trust / Carer Support Services

(as a carer),

I have felt burned out on so many occasions and felt caring is relentless. No end to troubles and no light at the end of the tunnel. Thank God for the support of Carers Support. You have saved my life.

Hi Rosieannie

Thank you for sharing your experience with Caring Support Service.

Great to hear that the service has been so beneficial for you.

I have shared your positive feedback with the team who greatly appreciate your kind words.

I hope that your caring journey continues to be supported. It is so important that carers are looked after to help sustain the caring journey and to look after themselves at the same time.

Best wishes

Conor
