Mental Health Carers Event: Focus and Engagement Session

Avanti Mental Wellbeing CIC invites unpaid carers across Merton to a free focus and engagement session on Thursday 27 August 2026.

Caring for someone can be demanding and often goes unrecognised. This session is a chance to speak openly about what that is like, in a relaxed and supportive setting.

What we’ll discuss

  • What support works, and what needs to improve
  • Getting the right information and advice
  • Spotting needs earlier, before they grow
  • The biggest challenges unpaid carers face
  • Breaks, wellbeing and respite
  • What Merton should prioritise for carers

Feedback from the session will inform Merton’s Carers Strategy and preventative services.
