CONFERENCE AND WORKSHOP - BEING A HELPER BEING HELPED

In France, 9 out of 10 caregivers provide help to a family member at home and, for 49%, this is a person in a situation of dependence due to old age (baromètre des aidants 2015).
Every year, October 6 is dedicated to caregivers. The theme of this 15th edition was caregivers' self-recognition.
The town of Heillecourt wishes to provide support to those who facilitate, through their presence, the daily life of a person losing their independence due to disability, illness or age.

In partnership with the Brain Up association, the Centre Communal d'Action Sociale is offering a "Être aidant, être aidé" support program in November. This is an opportunity to find out more about the help available to ease the burden of daily life, to share experiences with other participants, and to receive advice from a psychologist on how to act and communicate with your loved one. The final session offers an introduction to sophrology.

Come and take part in the conference on the theme of "Being a caregiver, looking after your health" on Thursday November 7. After the conference, you can also sign up for the 5 workshops offered on: Thursday November 14, 21, 28 and December 5, 12 from 2:30 to 4:30 pm.
