CARING WITH CONFIDENCE

For a copy of the Caring with Confidence information contact NVCA on 01933 396382 or email info@nvca.org.uk

Caring with Confidence is a FREE programme for carers. If you look after someone then this may be for you. The programme aims to make a positive difference to carers and the people they care for, by improving their health and well-being. This is done by providing support for carers through sessions, designed by carers for carers, where they can learn skills, get advice and information, talk and share experiences.

The Caring with Confidence programme is designed to fit around people's lives and caring responsibilities. Carers can pick and choose how many sessions they attend, and how they get involved. Each session lasts 3 hours and is delivered by two trained facilitators.

Examples of sessions include: Caring and Coping, Caring and Life, Caring and Communicating, Caring and Me.

Caring with Confidence is funded through the Department of Health
