We are inviting all Carers registered with Lakeside practices in Corby, Kettering and Oundle to a special Carers' Event offering help and advice. 

The drop-in session takes place on Wednesday 12 June at Lakeside's Cottingham Road Surgery NN17 2UR from 10am to 12.00 noon.  

Carers groups, healthcare workers and community agencies will all be there to offer advice and talk about the local services they offer. All carers registered at Lakeside's Northamptonshire surgeries are welcome to attend and the practices will be sending out text messages to all those we have contact details for.

Personalised Care Manager Kareema McCarthy said: 'Last year's event was really successful with around 40 carers attending to find more information on how we can help and what is available in the local area.

Being a carer can be isolating at times so this is a way for Lakeside and others to find out more about carers' needs and give a bit of additional support. Anyone who is a carer and is also a patient at one of our Northamptonshire practices is welcome to attend.
