carers. Participants will learn about the challenges and joys of caring and ways carers can be supported in a range of settings and in a range of ways. You will also hear directly from Parvathi, a carer from the Koppal district in Karnataka State, India. She
has been involved in the care for the carers programme from the beginning and she will be sharing insights into her life – these stories allow us to understand more about the differences and similarities in caring across the world.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
