Focus on supporting Carers...

In 1992, Essex Carers Support was established to support carers across North Essex.  We are proud to be a registered charity offering help to carers in Tendring and Colchester. Our staff are all knowledgeable in the issues that carers face and have many years of experience.

​

In addition to our Carer Information and Support service which we deliver in partnership with Action for Family Carers we also promote and advocate for carers to be supported and listened to by other service providers.

​

We have developed a number of online resources which focus on different elements of the caring role and these are available on the drop down menu on this page.

​

How we Operate

​

We have a Board of Trustees that are made up of  people which includes carers themselves, keeping carers at the centre of everything we do. We have a team of skilled and qualified people working across the county to deliver the best quality service possible.

​

We work with statutory and voluntary organisations both locally and nationally. We have a great knowledge of health and social care services and support as well as community resources available to you and the individual being cared for.

​

Our Partners and Funders

Our work is made possible by working in partnership with a variety of organisations and the generosity of our funders.
