Paul Burstow MP will be addressing local carers as part of National Black History Month celebrations this Sunday at Granfers Hall, Sutton. Sutton Carers Centre, Kingston Carers Network and Richmond Carers Centre are working to promote and deliver a significant event with and for up to 200 black and minority ethnic carers. The event will be open to all Carers regardless of ethnic origin and background living and or and working in the London Boroughs of Kingston, Richmond, Sutton, Merton and Lewisham.
The event will provide an opportunity for Carers and professionals working with Carers to network, as well as exchange information, views and good practice. In addition the day will include a range of informal seminars, panel discussions, workshops, therapy sessions, health checks, an Asian lunch, as well as an evening of music and dance.
Free therapies for Carers including massage, reflexology, yoga as well as African hair plaiting can be booked by leaving a message for Sophie on 020-8547-1614.
