Carers group now available

A new therapeutic group for carers is to be offered by The Harbour, starting in early 2012. It will be free of charge, available to anyone who looks after someone who is ill, and will meet on a Wednesday once a week, in central Bristol

Chief Executive Caroline Hukins explains “We see a great many carers for individual counselling at The Harbour, and common to almost all of them is a feeling of isolation. Therapy in a group context enables participants to realise they are not alone, and indeed that they can gain and offer a great deal of support to others who are in a similar situation. This can be a great boost to self-esteem. A group like this gives carers some time to focus on themselves; and to express what is happening for them”.
