Groups and Activities in the Community

Carers Trust Heart of England

We know how challenging caring can be and with that in mind, our group sessions are designed to help provide you with some much-needed respite and support.

Young Carers

Activities are a chance for Young Carers to have some respite and have a chance to make new friends and have fun. Our activities take place across the city meaning we're never too far away from you! Groups take place each and every week. 

Alzheimer’s Society

We offer a range of different groups and activities across the city to support those with a diagnosis of dementia and for those caring for a loved one.

Coventry Dementia Partnership Hub

The Coventry Dementia Partnership Hub is an initiative to provide more comprehensive support to people living well with dementia and their carers.

The hub offers a range of different activities, information and advice sessions, traditional day services and outreach along with a Dementia Friendly Café and social space.

The Recovery and Wellbeing Academy

The Academy offers a wide range of courses and workshops designed to empower your mental health and wellbeing, provided by a number of Partner organisations working together. Courses are delivered face to face and via online group sessions. All Academy courses and workshops are completely free of charge and open to anyone over the age of 18 living in Coventry and Warwickshire who wants to better manage or understand their mental health and wellbeing. Friends, family, staff, and carers are encouraged to attend as we strongly believe in learning together to get the most out of the courses on offer.

Special Educational Needs and Disability Information, Advice and Support Service SEND(IASS)

Throughout the year, SEND IASS invite parent/carers to join us for sessions aimed at improving knowledge and understanding around different areas of Special Educational Needs and disabilities, and supporting their children and young people.

These sessions are free but normally need to be booked in advance. 

Adult Social Care – Stakeholders Group

Adult Social Care meet every other month to discuss developments in Adult Social Care; this is an opportunity for people to help develop services and processes within Adult Social Care.

If you would like to attend please email the team

It is an important part of our work to make sure we engage with carers and that you have the opportunity to meet other carers and hear about important topics and developments affecting carers and the people they support.

If you are interested in developments in Adult Social Care, want to contribute and have your say then the Getting Involved in Adult Social Care Brochure will tell you how you can get involved.

Adult Social Care – Community Directory

There are multiple groups running across the city to support carers and the person they are caring for. The Adult Social Care - Community Directory is regularly updated with groups running across Coventry.
