Respite care means taking a break from caring, while the person you care for is looked after by someone else.

Do you look after someone who couldn't manage without your help?

This group provides support for people who have been carers but are now no longer undertaking a caring role.

The Plymouth All-Age Unpaid Carers Strategy is a plan to help people who care for others without being paid. This plan assists unpaid carers of all ages and backgrounds by giving them advice, support, and resources that they may need.

The Plymouth Parent Carer Voice (PPCV) brings together parents and carers of children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) in Plymouth and the surrounding area to give them the voice in the services that they use.

Time4U is Plymouth's young carer offer to children and young people and is provided by the Plymouth City Council Youth Work Team and the newly commissioned service, The Children's Society.
