The Brain Charity Carers Advocacy service offers free, independent, professional support for adult carers. Advocates are available to assist carers to access a range of personalised services to support them in their role and to help the people that they care for remain independent and within their own homes and communities.

The type of things that a carer may need support with are:

Health, Wellbeing and Home Life

                                                                 Employment, Education and Finance

                                                                 Getting involved in services

Barnardo's Action With Young Carers is commissioned to ensure that young carers and young adult carers up to the age of 25 are identified and can receive a carers assessment under the statutory duty of Liverpool City Council.

We work within a whole family approach to reduce the negative impact of caring by accessing support for the young carer and family members where there is an identified need.
