In Wolverhampton was a carer's group set up especially for older people and this group helped me a lot plus regular phone calls twice a week  and any problems I could call them  but after a few years because of funding this group gradually closed and I felt lost
I was also on a carer's forum at the time - princess trust  and carer's uk  and Hal who was a carer and chatting to me suggested  look at chill4us a carer's forum it looked good.
 I left the princess royal trust site and have not been on carer's uk for years  and joined chill4us  and I have to say I have had support , phone calls , advice etc. a bill site  that not only says it cares, to me chill has been very  helpful also the carer's newspaper printed by chill so than999 chill and membersx
When you lose your loved one you are still a valuable member  of chill unlike some forums so chill  is really 24/7 to give you support , advice  whether you just became a carer ,-or you no longer care so along with  many others I would recommend chill4us 100%
Another place that was always there for me with regular visits and phone calls was the Renel Clinic( kidneys  problems) based at New Cross ( local hospital)  get there help if you  need them  also get your distict nurses involed if they to are needed they can help alot  and you can go to carers support  but they was not very helpful for me.

going abit off the topic
A tip I found useful  was carry in your pocket  some wipes so when you walk round the house and you notice a  mark on the walls floor etc. get a wipe out and clean it there and then  it will save you time later cos no doubt you will forget about it   coffee x

Finding Chill has ended much of the isolation I had been feeling.

Until you become a carer you have no idea how drastically your life is going to change, however much you love the family member you are caring for, round-the-clock care is so tiring & isolating.

I think the NHS & government need to pay more notice to carers - in the long-term it would benefit them because we end up exhausted & needing medical help ourselves!

I registered with my GP as the main carer for my father and I was given a "Carer Pack" which consisted of a few leaflets, but the best thing in it was a booklet by Norfolk County Council called "The Norfolk Carers Handbook" available online via this link to Norfolk County Council website

http://www.norfolk.gov.uk/view/ncc083633

Then by good fortune I found Chill4us ... an amazing bunch of people, who are there to support each other through the difficulties of being an unpaid Carer... they have been the best help ever, and the best Forum I have come across, they seem to generate such a positive feeling  ....

1)- Non-Chill members … just think for a moment or two… if you became a (unpaid) family Carer, do you know where you could go for help?

2)- Chillers, how did you go about finding out where you could get help from?
