The latest Carewaves magazine is out now and is available to download or read on the website. The magazine was completed as restrictions from England’s third coronavirus lockdown were easing, so some of the face to face services, such as carers’ groups and mentoring, may have resumed or will do so shortly, rather than being offered over the phone or online. Please contact Carers in Hertfordhshire if you would like support with your caring role or for up to date information about our services. Email [email protected] or call 01992 58 69 69.
Register as a Carer
Are you looking after or providing support for a relative, friend, or neighbour? Are you being helped or supported by a relative, friend, or neighbour?
Your GP needs to know so you can be offered the right information, support and access to services. GP surgeries have to compile information for the government about the numbers of carers attached to the surgery so your information will help them to do this.
Please contact us a the surgery or complete and online triage form advising us you are a carer so we can add this information to your medical record.

As buds appear this spring, we’re offering unpaid carers an opportunity to invest in their own growth. Whether they’re looking to develop new skills, explore a hobby, or simply take a well-deserved break to focus on themselves, they’ll be welcome on our courses.
All our events are free for unpaid carers registered with Carers in Hertfordshire.
Our sessions are available at different times throughout the day – morning, afternoon, and evening – so carers can find an option that fits their caring role.
This spring we’re running MolyFit Exercise online, Looking After Your Back in Hatfield, a Tai Chi Course in Bushey and plenty more. Click here to download our full course list.

Our aim is to give unpaid carers a chance to make time for themselves while continuing the incredible work they do.
