Winter can pose additional challenges for carers. From it becoming harder to leave the house with our ‘cared for’, to the additional financial strain of extra heating, to managing our own carer wellbeing through those darker months.
Supporting our wellbeing is important at any time of year, but winter does bring additional challenges for many of us. Putting ourselves first is never selfish, and in fact is the only way we’ll be able to keep on caring for others.
