Mental Health Carer

Are you caring for someone with a mental illness?

Learning that a family member or a friend has a mental illness can be very overwhelming. Many people ask themselves...

How can this happen to our family?
What can I do to help?
Where can I get more information?
Who can help me make sense of it all?

The aim of this website is to help you answer these and some of the other questions you may have about supporting someone with a mental illness.

WE WELCOME YOU TO THIS WEBSITE
