North Argyll Carers Centre - covering Oban & surrounding areas, Mull, Iona, Coll & Tiree

We are a local charity, supporting unpaid carers across the Oban,
Lorn and Isles area, making a positive difference to their lives and ensuring their voices are heard. We provide person-centred emotional and practical support to over 700 adult carers and more than 100 young carers over the age of 5, with support tailored to individual need. We are a team of 16 staff and 19 volunteers with Carer Support Workers based at our office in Oban, on Mull and Iona, Coll and Tiree, and an outreach team covering the rural mainland, thus ensuring there is parity of service for those in the most rural and remote areas. We are governed by our Board of Trustees.

Do you help to look after someone who could not manage without your help? Maybe an elderly parent, or a partner or child with disabilities or an addiction. There are lots of people just like you in Argyll, who look after someone who could not manage on their own.
