It is estimated that in Hull alone, 23,000 carers are supporting family, friends and neighbours.

The Carers’ Centre Hull is organising the event at the Goodwin Centre, Icehouse Road in Hull, on February 10, for NHS Hull and Hull Council workers.

Andrew Phair, Locality Director (North) and Carers’ Lead for NHS Hull said “Carers’ own needs are often neglected in favour of the person for whom they care.

“The information marketplace will give front line health and social care workers the opportunity to find out what additional help, advice and support there is available for their clients, not only as a carer but as a person in their own right.”

The Carers’ Centre Hull is taking bookings on Hull 225078 or email [email protected].
