Robert Fielder, business manager for Bluebird Care Petersfield, said:
We are proud to promote Carers Week to help raise awareness of the unpaid carers in our community and to help highlight the challenges that they face day in, day out. We hope that supporting this campaign will provide help to those caring in our local area, and make them aware of the support that is available to them.”
