Carers Testimonials

"I used my Short Break grant for massages to help with stress and chronic pain. It made a huge difference to my physical self. I could move better and after a few months my pain was much more under control. Having that hour of relaxation also did wonders for my mental health. I felt less uptight and more calm without the constant pain. Shetland Carers have really helped take some pressure off me with their services. I’m so grateful."

~ Carer who was awarded a Time for Me Short Break grant
