Grace Cares’ Care Club continues to provide practical advice, emotional support and connection for unpaid caregivers across the region.
Care Club met on Monday 26th January for another supportive session, welcoming unpaid caregivers as the group continues to grow. Held in a safe and welcoming environment, the session offered caregivers the opportunity to openly discuss their experiences, ask questions and share concerns, while being reassured that they are not alone.
The focus of the session was incontinence care, with practical guidance delivered by experienced incontinence nurse Paulina Kurek, alongside Michelle Garvey from Ontex. Attendees also received additional wellbeing support from Nicola Forsyth, who shared advice on managing stress and overwhelm through life coaching insights and simple breathwork techniques to help caregivers regulate and reset during challenging moments.
Care Club is organised by Grace Cares, who are dedicated to supporting unpaid caregivers through education, connection and compassionate support. Each session is designed to combine practical guidance with emotional reassurance, while also signposting caregivers to further resources and services that can help them in their caring role.
Grace Cares works alongside trusted partners such as Ontex to ensure caregivers receive expert, reliable information on topics that can often be difficult to talk about.
We’re proud to support Grace Cares’ Care Club in creating open, practical conversations around incontinence, helping people feel informed, supported and less alone. – Paulina Kurek from Ontex
For many attendees, the greatest value comes from feeling understood by others in similar situations.
The meetings that I have attended and your team who spoke to me are invaluable to me. Long may it continue. You are providing a lifeline. – Participant
