DO you provide regular and substantial care for a relative or friend?

If so, did you know you there is a wide range of support available?

Those are the questions Cheshire County Council is asking as part of a campaign to seek out Cheshire's 'hidden' carers.

A bus poster campaign and bookmarks - available free from Cheshire libraries - will encourage them to make contact with the Ask Pat Team to find out more about support available.

Support available includes options such as day care and short break support, which can be tailored to the needs of the person being cared for.

For details about the support available for carers, ring 0845 111 333 11 and ask for Pat.
