Action Mental Health - Mindful Carers Project
The Mindful Carers Project will empower carers across Northern Ireland to maintain positive physical and emotional wellbeing. The project has been supported by the Community Foundation for Northern Ireland through the Carer’s Support Fund and will offer free support services for carers.
Mindful Carers Project
The AMH Mindful Carers Project supports carers, young carers and carers of those with complex needs across NI through a range of programmes provided both face to face and online.
Many thousands of people in Northern Ireland look after a family member or friend. This can place a huge amount of responsibility on them, as well as the emotional and physical demands that come with caregiving. The Mindful Carers Project has been designed through feedback provided by carers in response to a survey undertaken in January 2022.
The Mindful Carers Project will:
- Offer 1-to-1 support for carers
- Provide drop-in support sessions
- Provide a 6-week emotional wellbeing and resilience programme
- Host a fortnightly peer support group
- Lead a carer’s panel that can influence strategic policy for Carers in NI
