Community Wellbeing Session: Caring for the Carers – 30th January 2026
Join us on Friday, 30th January 2026, for our first Community Wellbeing Session of the new year as we welcome Vicky Keeley, CEO of Sefton Carers Centre. With over 31 years of experience supporting unpaid carers, Sefton Carers Centre plays a vital role in helping people who look after loved ones with long-term conditions or terminal illness — often without recognition or support.
This session will explore the local, regional, and national landscape of unpaid care, the challenges carers face, and the support systems available right here in Sefton. Whether you’re a carer yourself, or someone who supports carers through your work or personal life, this is a must-attend session to start the year with knowledge and connection.
