Carers' support groups

This is your chance to speak to us and others who have experience of a caring role. Even though each group meets for an hour and a half, please just feel free to drop in for as long as you want, and stay on for as long as you like afterwards! More details can be found on our Facebook group, or contact us.

Future dates:

NEW! Bargoed group, Murray’s (Upper High Street, Bargoed) on the first Monday of the month from 11am to 12:30pm.

Blackwood group, McKenzie’s Cafe on the last Tuesday of the month from 10:30am to 12 noon.

Caerphilly group, The Old Library, Caerphilly on the third Friday of the month from 2pm to 3:30pm.

Risca group, The Coffee Mill, Risca on the second Thursday of the, month from 12 noon to 1:30pm.

If any of these dates fall on a Bank Holiday, we will usually move to the following week on the same day, but if you are unsure, check on Facebook, or contact the team.

Small Grants Scheme

We currently have a small amount of money available to assist carers in their caring role. Carers can apply for money for various things, such as household equipment, driving lessons, short breaks and help with new skills. Please get in touch for an application form.

Organising an event?

If your organisation or group is holding an event that you want others to know about, please let us know by contacting the Carers Support Worker and if appropriate we will add the details to this webpage.
