Making Space has been supporting carers for over 40 years
We have seen the changing and ever increasing pressures carers experience and provide valuable support to help.
We have and always will listen to what carers tell us they need and adapt support accordingly.
Do you live in Doncaster and look after someone?
If you’re living in Doncaster and are an unpaid carer for a loved one, relative or neighbour then we are here to help.
Our Doncaster Carers’ Wellbeing Service will support you in your caring role, help you to stay connected in your community and provide you with guidance and advice.
We will work with you to find solutions and identify support and resources available to you in Doncaster.
Support for Adult Carers
At Making Space we understand the stress and pressures of being a carer. Our team of professional carer support workers will get to know you and your situation and tailor our services to design a personalised support package.
Our support will be personalised and holistic. With you we will consider all the areas of your life and what is important to and for you. This could include:
- Statutory Carers assessment and reviews
- One to one support
- Peer support and groups
- Access to training to support you in your caring role
- Signposting to support to take a break from caring
- E-circular detailing local groups, activities and courses
- Support to access community, health and wellbeing services
- Training both to support you in your caring role and for your own personal development or interests
- Volunteering opportunities
- Information, advice and guidance

Being a carer can be physically and emotionally demanding. If you support someone with a long term health condition or disability, we can help you to do so, without it having a negative impact on your life.

All our social groups feature bingo, arts and crafts, group quizzes with light-hearted chat and refreshments.

Where you can find us
Our teams are based in various community venues across Doncaster.
We can also provide remote support via telephone and/or video call if you are unable to access a venue and can conduct home visits for carers who cannot engage in any other way.
We want to hear from you so we can help you to look after yourself. Tell us where, when, what and how we can provide support that would make a real difference for you.
