Caring for carers across North Argyll & the Islands
If you are currently in a caring role and feel in need of support, a listening ear, or counselling, please call 01631 564422
Our Mindful Walking Group for carers meets every Monday in the Corran Halls Car Park, Oban, at 11.00am, for a gentle relaxed walk to Dunollie and back via The Witches. Plenty of time for wildlife spotting and plant ID. We've seen deer, seals and the otter so far.
If you'd like to join us just turn up on a Monday, or contact Mairi for more details: mairi@northargyllcarers.org.uk

Testimonials
“The staff at the Carers Centre are like my second family. Just brilliant. ”
Carers comment
“Gave me a great deal of insight into my own feelings of anger and frustration and how to cope with them"
'Time for Me' session
“This was a time for me to relax and be myself. I felt 'at home' in the group. The outdoor activities/walks were the best time for sharing problems & finding common emotions and needs. This time out really helped me. Thank you so very much.”
