Thursday 20 March, 2pm to 4pm > Organised by the Saint-Cyprien local authority and the CCAS.
Free monthly get-togethers for carers to exchange ideas, support each other and get help.
Monthly snacks for carers!
To provide support and assistance to people caring for disabled or sick relatives, the Saint-Cyprien commune is launching the "Goûters des aidants" (Caregivers' snacks). These get-togethers will be held in the Salle de la Capitainerie on the 3rd Thursday of each month from 2pm to 4pm.
All too often, the carers of disabled or sick people are isolated, and in addition to the burden of providing day-to-day support for a loved one who has lost all or part of their independence, many of them gradually have to give up their social life. Not to mention the helplessness some of them feel when faced with the administrative formalities they have to deal with.
To support them, offer them appropriate assistance and enable them to get out of their isolation through contact with other carers, Saint-Cyprien Town Hall is launching the "Goûter des aidants" (a snack for carers) at the start of the year.
These get-togethers will take place at the Salle de la Capitainerie in the harbour on the first Thursday of each month from 2pm to 4pm, and will be attended by a nurse and an agent from the CCAS (Centre Communal d'Action Sociale).
Enabling carers to take a little time out for themselves.
The aim of these snacks is to give carers the chance to get together, talk things over, make new friends and break out of their isolation. They will be welcomed by the nurse, who will be on hand to answer any questions they may have, while the CCAS agent will guide those who so wish through the administrative and other formalities.
"Our aim," explains Mayor Thierry Del Poso, "is to identify the carers in our area, whatever the disability of the person they are supporting, and to help them find solutions to the problems they face (formalities, putting together files, setting up assistance schemes such as transport on demand, etc.), while creating a genuine 'carers-social services' network".
All carers in the commune are invited to attend (free of charge).
Please note, however, that they are not aimed at people being cared for, whom the CCAS is unable to accommodate at the moment.
So if you're a carer, don't hesitate!
