Are you a Carer who needs a break?
Are you responsible for a husband, wife, partner, relative or friend?
The Carers Sitting Service provides support by giving you a break to do the shopping, go the hairdresser’s, the gym, a yoga class, meet up with a friend for a coffee or simply go for a walk. The service gives you time, for you.
Sitting sessions are usually for a couple of hours and weekly, but are arranged to whatever suits you best. Sessions are available in Thrapston now.

However, they will give you what you need most - a break from caring for someone else so that you can take care of you. We have a befriender in your area now, so if you are interested:
