WELCOME

TO SUTTON CARERS CENTRE

The aim of our work is to help ensure that no Carer has to reach crisis point before they get the support they need.

CALL US TODAY FOR ADVICE

During this transitional period, we are still being cautious due to high transmission rates but we want you to know that we are welcoming everyone back into the Centre. Please note that we still have hand sanitiser stations, face masks available and will continue to keep windows open for ventilation to help ensure everyone's safety. We also encourage staff, volunteers and visitors to continue to take lateral flow tests before visiting the Centre, if possible - and of course, to stay home if showing any signs or symptoms of being unwell.

If you are caring for someone vulnerable and want to avoid being in our waiting area, then please call us on 020 8296 5611, or email enquiries@suttoncarerscentre.org as you may prefer to book an appointment with us. If your query or concern can be resolved over a phone call, then please call us.

ARE YOU

A CARER?

A Carer is anyone who cares, unpaid, for a friend or family member who due to illness, disability, a mental health concern or an addiction, cannot cope without their support.

Anyone could be a Carer – a 15-year-old girl looking after a parent with alcohol dependency, a 40-year-old man caring for his partner who has terminal cancer, or an 80-year-old woman looking after her husband who has Alzheimer’s disease.

There are around seven million Carers in the UK – that is one in ten people. This is rising.
Three in five people will be Carers at some point in their lives in the UK.
Out of the UK’s Carers, 42% of Carers are men and 58% are women.
The economic value of the contribution made by Carers in the UK is £132bn a year.
By 2030, the number of Carers will increase by 3.4 million (around 60%).
