Practical support for family carers - built for real life
Caring for someone you love can be meaningful, exhausting, confusing, and invisible - often all at once.
Carer Wellbeing Academy exists to make that load lighter.
We create practical tools, learning, and resources that help carers and the people who support them feel steadier, more connected, and better equipped — without adding more to their to-do list.
Our mission is simple: to improve the wellbeing of carers through knowledge, connection, and daily support.
Our apps: small tools, real impact
Our apps are built to support micro-actions — small, doable steps that make a difference over time.
Each app focuses on a single purpose, so you can choose what helps most right now.
You’ll find apps that help with:
emotional check-ins and reflection
calming the nervous system during stressful moments
organising thoughts, tasks, and care responsibilities
tracking wellbeing over time
reconnecting with people and supports
You can use one app on its own, or combine a few to create your own support system.
What we do (and why it works)
Caring doesn’t happen in neat blocks of time. That’s why our support is designed to work in small moments, across different needs, and at different stages of the caring journey.
📱 Digital tools that meet you where you are
Short, focused apps designed for carers — not generic wellbeing apps repackaged for caregiving.
🎓 Learning that respects your reality
Short courses that are practical, human, and grounded in lived experience.
📘 Resources you can actually use
Handbooks, guides, and templates you can return to when things feel unclear or overwhelming.

We’re here to help you thrive
At the Carer Wellbeing Academy, we believe that the health and happiness of carers are essential for providing quality care to others.
Our mission is to raise awareness of the importance of carer wellbeing and provide valuable resources and support for both individual carers and the broader community groups supporting them.
What our carers are saying
Shirley L.
Carer
“It is heartening to be able to share the carer journey with others that understand. Also, to be able to share information with each other that is beneficial to the caring role.”
Molly S.
Carer
“I was worried about my son’s health and safety so much. I realised that I avoided thinking about my own life. Attending the webinars and groups has helped me to think about my needs.”
Maddie
Carer
“Being able to connect with other’s has boosted my confidence and self esteem. I enjoy talking so it is lovely to engage with other’s that may understand your role.”
