Active April with the Carers Hub - a follow-up

Published
Caring for someone can be incredibly rewarding but also demanding. It's easy to put your own needs on hold, but remember that your well-being is important too. That's why the Gloucestershire Carers Hub is supporting exciting activities for unpaid Carers throughout April 2025, as part of Active April.

What is Active April

Active April is a fantastic opportunity to prioritise your health and connect with other unpaid Carers in the community. Whether you're looking for gentle exercise, outdoor adventures, or simply a chance to relax and recharge, there's something for everyone. 

 Here's a glimpse of what you can expect?

  • Activities and Social Events: From exploring the great outdoors to discovering the benefits of movement and mindfulness, throughout April we will be focusing on well-being. Connect with other Carers at fun and informal gatherings both in person and online. Share experiences, offer support, and build lasting friendships.
