Directory of Support Available in Somerset

Caring for a friend or family member who is struggling with mental health can be challenging. Recognising the vital role carers play, CCS Somerset Carers Service has compiled a comprehensive Directory of Support available in Somerset, specifically designed to assist unpaid carers. This directory is your gateway to a wealth of resources, offering guidance, advice, and practical assistance.

The directory is organised into several key sections: Support and Advice for Unpaid Carers, Helplines, Local Services and Activities, Activities and Peer Support, and Videos and Courses. Each section provides a curated list of resources, from local services dedicated to mental health care to peer support and educational materials.

By clicking on the links below, you’ll discover detailed information about the resources, including how to access each service, contact information, and particulars of the support they offer. Whether you’re seeking immediate assistance through a helpline, looking for local services to engage with, or interested in learning more through peer support and education, the directory is here to help guide your journey.

You can be referred to CCS Somerset Carers Service as part of the wider Open Mental Health service. Please contact our Open Mental Health team at Mindline Somerset, freephone 0800 138 1692 or contact us here.
