Links and Publications
Family members and friends of people who have a life limiting illness often carry out caring tasks for their loved one, however they often do not recognise themselves formally as a carer. As well as providing advice and information, these organisations and contacts listed here also have support groups, training and education opportunities, and approach their service and information provision from the perspective of a carer.
Isolation, lack of social contact and uncertainty regarding how to be of assistance to their loved one are often identified by the family members and carers of people with a terminal illness. Often it can be difficult to find time or energy to make contact with people, groups or organizations that may be able to provide the support you and your loved one needs during difficult times.
