💙 Do you look after someone? Then who looks after you? 💙

We’re pleased to be welcoming Hartlepool Carers to a special event at:

📍 The Thrive Hive, Farndale Road, Seaton Carew
📅 Friday 27th February
⏰ 1:00pm til 3:00pm

If you care for a family member, partner or friend — whether they have an illness, disability, mental health condition, frailty or addiction — you are a carer, even if you don’t think of yourself as one.

There are 5.8 million unpaid carers in the UK, and right here in Hartlepool there are 6,500 registered adult carers and 600 young carers receiving support from Hartlepool Carers. Unpaid carers save the economy billions each year — so its important that carers receive support too.

Hartlepool Carers can offer:

✨ Quick, free and easy registration
✨ A Carer’s Assessment
✨ Help with Carer’s Allowance, PIP and Financial benefits applications
✨ Referrals to other services for support tailored to your needs
✨ A welcome pack and Carer’s Card (giving you access to local shopping discounts and days out)
✨ Access to discounted breaks
✨ Did you know, they also continue to support ex-carers who may have sadly lost the person they cared for
....and more.

☕ Free tea and coffee, and maybe even a biscuit, will be available, so please come along, have a chat and find out what support is available in a relaxed and friendly setting.

You don’t have to do it alone 💙

We’d love to see you there!

October is breast cancer awareness month and the staff at Seaton Surgery have been enjoying raising money (eating cakes) to support this cause with the help of a wonderful donation of cupcakes, dressed in pink of course, to highlight awareness and stoke the flames of discussion.

Do you know what to watch out for and do you check yourself regularly - men too, its not just the ladies?

If you notice any changes, dimpling, lumps, thickening, redness, discharge, pain, or even just something that is not normal for you - please get in touch with your GP for a check up. See the links below for more information.
