Grantham: Carers First Lincolnshire - Events & Discounts for Carers

Carers First works directly with, and for carers, providing personalised information and tailored support in the way that suits them, helping them find balance, and to live their lives to the fullest - today, and for years to come. 

Carers First Lincolnshire

Every little helps when trying to make your money go further, especially if you are a carer. Discounts can make a big difference, so it is always worth keeping an eye out for opportunities to get some money off.
And you may be surprised how many discounts you are eligible for as a carer. Some organisations want to make sure that you aren’t penalised for looking after someone so provide free entry to attractions when you take the person you care for out and about. Others are keen to recognise the amazing sacrifices you are making, and the financial impact this can sometimes have, by providing you with discounted products, services or fees.
