Today the Young Carers we support came to our head office to take part in some First Aid training we put on for them.
This valuable training will help them in their caring role and be a good life skill for them to have.
Derbyshire Carers Association was founded by Gerry Fryer in 1988 following circumstances which found him in the caring position as described by himself here.
Once he realised how little support there was for Carers Gerry aimed for and met his aspiration for Carer support provision.
With the help of some other Carers, Derbyshire Carers Association gained it’s first paid employee in 1989, this has now grown to over 30 dedicated and passionate employees as well as a large number of volunteers.
