From real-life carer stories to autumn activities, creative challenges and opportunities to connect, our September newsletter is full of ways to support your wellbeing, learn something new and get involved.
This month, we’re excited to share our new Real Carers, Real Stories video project, featuring the powerful experiences of three unpaid carers. We’re also inviting you to take part in our 30 Day Autumnal Creative Pause, join our friendly carers’ book group and celebrate 30 years of Carers Leeds at our special anniversary party.

There are plenty of opportunities to learn and develop new skills, including our bite-sized dementia learning sessions, Mental Health and Financial Wellbeing training and free workshops to help parents and carers navigate EHCP appeals.
You can also have your voice heard by taking part in University of Oxford research exploring carer wellbeing or helping us shape new support groups for families and friends of people affected by drug or alcohol use. Plus, read the inspiring stories of Cheryl and Heidi, who share their personal caring journeys and experiences of support.
Finally, don’t miss our upcoming groups and activities, including the Carers Together Women’s Group, our anniversary Firewalk challenge and a range of creative and wellbeing sessions from Space2. We hope there’s something that catches your eye, and we look forward to seeing you soon!
