The Tolsey Surgery carers register is used to identify people who give care or support to someone who is ill, frail, disabled or is mentally ill so that we can offer them the support they need and refer them to Carer Support Wiltshire.

Who is a carer?

A carer is someone who provides help and support to a partner, relative, child, friend or neighbour who could not manage without their help.

Carers help the people they care for because they may be ill, frail, disabled, have mental health or substance abuse problems.

Tolsey Carers Register

If you are a carer please join the register, we can offer you:

• Priority flu vaccination
• Flexibility when making appointments
• Joint home visits with the person you care for

If you are a carer please contact Alison Picter (Carers Lead) at the surgery for more help and information

If you’re looking after someone who is living with dementia, Wiltshire Council and Carer Support Wiltshire are seeking your views on dementia support in the county. For more information visit
