We have a colourful new piece of artwork up in the Centre. These hearts were created by Carers attending our Carer Lunch groups, each one unique, just like the Carers we support. Have a wee look next time you’re in.

Caring is tough. Over 1 in 3 unpaid Carers say their mental health is poor. Taking time for you isn’t selfish - it helps you cope and supports the person you care for too. Need to talk? Call 01786 447003 or email info@stirlingcarers.org.uk 💚 #WorldMentalHealthDay
