This is Carers Week.  This year’s theme is making caring more valued and visible.  I wrote this blog to celebrate all carers do and emphasise the importance of taking care of their wellbeing so they can be there for those they care for. I share some of my own experiences as a carer and how it affected my own wellbeing during lockdown.   There are also some tips on how the church to take better care of their carers!
