Your Carers Toolkit
Our community of carers are constantly sharing what's helping them. Together we have built up a toolkit of resources that we can all use. We're adding to it all the time, you can sign up to our daily or weekly e-support package to be kept in the loop.
Connect with other carers
Join a Mobilise Cuppa by video call to chat to others who are looking after someone
The Mobilise Community Facebook Group is friendly and welcoming, a great place to swap tips and share challenges
Speak to someone

Common challenges
Finance - Many of us have had to change our caring setup during lock-down. That can mean extra costs, and is financial support out there.
Emergency Plan - Every carer will have thought 'What if something happens to me?' in the last few weeks. Here's a quick tool for setting up a plan.
Routines - A big part of coping with lock-down is getting into a routine. Have a go with our planner
Asking for help - not always an easy thing to do but there are organisations and communities that are ready to help you.
