Not sure where to start?
You don't need to know what service to ask for. Answer a few quick questions and we'll help you work out a useful place to start.
A quick guide, built around you
This isn't an assessment and there are no right or wrong answers. It simply helps you find the parts of Liverpool Carers Centre that may be most useful right now.
You don't have to work everything out at once.
Caring can begin gradually or life can change overnight. This short support finder will help you prioritise the next step rather than giving you a long list of things to read.
Does someone rely on you for help or support?
This might be because of illness, disability, mental health, addiction, age or another reason. You do not need to live with them.
What is making the biggest difference to you at the moment?
Choose as many as you need. We'll use these to put the most useful next steps first.
Have you had a Carer's Assessment?
A Carer's Assessment looks at how caring affects your life and what support could help you.
What would feel most useful next?
We'll still show other relevant options, but this helps us choose your best starting point.
Here's where we'd start.
Based on your answers, these are the options that may be most useful to look at first.
