Hi, my name is fizz1! It can be quite a lonely place as a carer.

    Heya @fizz1 and welcome to the community.

    So what brings you here today? If you need help with anything, please just ask away and we'll all do our best to support you.
    Or if you just fancied a light hearted chat, or a few easy games, I'd recommend checking out the coffee lounge and the games den.

    Thanks Albus, I just wanted to connect with others in a similar situation to myself. It can be quite a lonely place as a carer. So many of the carers groups I see are on during the day when I'm at work.
