Devon Link Up supports Torbay Family Carers who care for people with learning disabilities.
The Carers groups provide a friendly and supportive opportunity for carers to get together, share experiences and enjoy time with others who understand the challenges and rewards of caring.
As well as offering a chance to chat over a coffee, the groups regularly invite guest speakers who provide useful information, advice and support on a range of topics relevant to carers.
On the second Wednesday morning of each month, the Carers meet at Jasmyn House, Paignton from 10.30am to 12 noon. The group offers a relaxed environment where people can enjoy a chat, coffee and cake while meeting new friends and accessing helpful information.
On the third Wednesday evening of each month, the Carers meet at the Methodist Church on Palace Avenue, Paignton from 7.00pm to 8.30pm. The group welcomes guest speakers, shares information and provides an opportunity for carers to connect and support one another.
Every other month, on the first Wednesday evening, there is also an online Zoom meeting, allowing carers who may not be able to attend in person to stay connected and take part in discussions.
Everyone is welcome and we are always pleased to meet new people. If you would like more information about the service, please email: [email protected].
