Crossroads - Caring for Carers
Crossroads provides 'in the home care' for carers. Most of us juggle busy lives, but for carers, providing support for a relative, partner or friend, the pressures can be enormous. More than six million people, including 175,000 young carers under the age of 18, give their time in this way - that's one in eight people in the UK.
