In the last 12 months my work as a researcher has bought me into
contact with nearly 100 people who's lives are devoted to caring for
someone who could not manage without their support. Carers are often on
duty 24hours a day attending, without pay, to the needs of a partner,
friend, neighbor, child or parent. The pressures on them can be
enormous.
On 19th June, I will be swimming a mile non-stop
in open water at Alton Water, Suffolk to raise funds for Suffolk Family
Carers. I have been so impressed with the work of this organisation
that provides support to Carers including respite, advice and training.
However, it is not just me that has been impressed. The Carers I have
met have been overwhelmingly positive in what they have said about the
organisation and it is that which has really encouraged me to offer my
support to this charity.
