Carers Link East Dunbartonshire
Carers Link we work with carers who live in East Dunbartonshire or care for someone in the area.
The person you care for might be living with a disability, an illness, a mental health problem or have issues around substance misuse or addiction. We know that each carer’s situation is unique and will talk things through with you – and listen to you – to ensure that we tailor support to what you need.
