The Carers Support Centre is a drop-in advice and support centre for unpaid carers in Croydon. A carer looks after a friend, family member or neighbour due to illness, disability or old age.
Home to a number of carer support organisations, carers are welcome to drop in to our friendly centre Monday to Friday, 10am-4pm for information, advice and support.
Carers can also visit our free Carers Café for a cuppa and a chat on weekday mornings, 10.30am-12.30pm. You are welcome to bring the person you care for with you.
The centre offers a wider range of support for carers, including specialist advice surgeries, Carer’s Assessments, health and wellbeing activities, support groups, workshops, informative publications, bereavement support, local discounts, quarterly newsletters and a monthly e-bulletin.
