Being a carer can be a lonely experience, and there is no need to be. Carer support groups are a good place to meet with other Leeds carers who are in a similar situation and understand the pressure of being a carer. The groups usually meet on a regular basis, where carers discuss their caring situation, socialise, share information and offer each other support.
