Carer’s story in their own words - Carers Trust Solihull

“After contacting the Carers Trust Solihull I was offered an assessment. I found the assessment itself very therapeutic and it had been a very long time since anyone had asked me about myself; it is always about my cared-for. I was shown a lot of understanding and empathy by the assessor. She told me I was doing a very worthwhile thing by being a carer, and people don’t tell you that.”
