Thank you to everyone who got involved with our Carers Event last month, around 45 carers came along and helped us explore themes which were important to them! We have created some graphics to show some of our findings, as well as a summary of the event.

We would like to thank everyone who took part in the Carers Event today at the Beacon Arts Centre. We had a packed house with loads of brilliant feedback and ideas flying around! HSCP, Your Voice and the Inverclyde Carers Centre worked together to plan and facilitate the event, with 6 focus groups of carers and staff all brainstorming about the 4 main themes which came out of the 2023 Carers Survey.

Macmillan Cancer Support Professional's Conference 2023 was in full swing at the Scottish Event Campus in Glasgow!

Your Voice, Inverclyde HSCP and Inverclyde Carers Centre are collaborating on a Carers event, to hear more from Carers following the findings of the Carers Survey 2023.

We would love to invite you to The Beacon Arts Centre, at 9.15am - 2pm on Friday the 17th November. We hope you can come along, share your thoughts, opinions, and socialise with other unpaid adult (18+) carers. We hope to explore themes, ideas and issues which were raised in the Carers Survey this year.

A day to reflect on our accomplishments and look forward to the future!
