Carer Support Groups

There are many carer support groups in Oxfordshire. Talking to other carers can be a big comfort. Whether it’s asking for advice or just discussing how you feel.

Some carer support groups are for unpaid carers in general (including the group we run) while others are aimed at carers of people with specific conditions such as Dementia, Autism, mental health illness or addictions. There are also groups for specific communities for example Veterans.

Visit one of the Oxfordshire County Council directories below to find the right carer support group for you:
