We offer a range of events to support adult carers, including coffee mornings, activity sessions and drop-in opportunities. These events provide a chance to meet others and access helpful information.

Some events require booking. If you're already registered with our service and would like to attend, please email: carersupport@alliancehomes.org.uk.

If you're not currently registered, you're still welcome to come along, but we encourage you to complete a referral form so a member of our team can get in touch and help you access our services.

As a registered charity funded by North Somerset Council, we rely on donations to provide these sessions for free, unless otherwise stated. There is no minimum amount, and we only ask if you're able to give.
