Welcome to the Carers Choice website

Carers Choice (formally Carers Relief Service) was established in Dartford, Gravesham, Swanley and the surrounding areas during 1995. The successful growth has resulted in our present day popular and well respected organisation which provides specialist support and respite for the main carer's of adults with learning disabilities. The Service is established for charitable purposes only for the benefit of the community, to provide support and respite to those who look after adults with a learning disability.

Carers Choice supports the philosophy that people with learning disabilities should no longer be marginalized or excluded from society. They should be allowed to have as much choice and control as possible over the services and support they receive. They should be encouraged to explore new opportunities and play an active role within the community. Our organization is committed to promoting social inclusion and raising standards for both people with learning disabilities and their carers. It is our objective to provide help and support to carers in order to allow them to better fulfill their caring roles and to encourage independence to help improve the quality of life for the supported person.
