Hi everyone,
We have heard from some of you that you would like to hear more from other carers, so we have decided to create a monthly 'spotlight' profiling one of the forum members.
What we'd love to hear from you is what you would like to know about your fellow forum members?
One way of thinking of this is to imagine you're at a dinner party and you start chatting to the stranger beside you & you discover they are also a carer! What types of questions would you ask?
Looking forward to hearing your ideas!

Hey NikNik
This seems like a fun idea and a great way to get to know a bit more about others. Some questions I might ask are:
1. How long have you been a carer for?
2. How many friends/family/partners have you cared for?
3. What is your definition of a carer?
4.What do you think makes a person a good carer?
5.How has being a carer shaped your life?
6.What do you get out of being a carer?
7. Did you ever imagine that in your lifetime you would become a carer?
8. How might you feel if at some point you needed a carer for yourself?
Well there's a few random questions. I know there are hundreds of others and that one simple question can open a whole diverse dialouge for carers.

Hi Harry,
Yep, I put it out there again.
Does anyone wish to share a bit about themselves?
Would be great to get to know a little bit about each other!!
