Creating a community where people feel valued, connected, and supported is at the heart of our mission at Halo Leisure.

This Carers Week, meet Lisa, our coordinator for the Carers Respite Programme in Bridgend and Merthyr Tydfil. This 6-week programme is a vital lifeline, offering respite and connection for unpaid carers and their loved ones living with dementia. 🌈

A Message from Lisa πŸ’¬
"The sessions give carers a chance to step away briefly from their responsibilities, focus on their own wellbeing, and build relationships with others who truly understand. It helps reduce feelings of isolation and reassures them that they are not alone." πŸ’›

What the Programme Offers:
🌿 Time for Respite: Light exercise, gentle movement, and time to recharge.

🀝 Peer Support: A safe space to share experiences and coping strategies with fellow carers.

πŸ’‘ Practical Advice: Weekly guest slots from local organisations to connect carers with vital services and home support they might not know exist.
