THE Whitchurch Time Together group has launched.

The Princess Royal Trust for Carers in Hampshire has announced the new support group for carers and the people that they care for.

They will receive support, information and advice, as well as meeting and engaging with other local carers over a cup of tea and some cake.

The launch of the group will be on Tuesday, 3 April at the Methodist Church, in Winchester Street, from 10am to noon.

The support group will then run on the first Tuesday of each month after the launch.

A spokesperson for the trust said: “The trust is very grateful to Whitchurch Town Council for showing their commitment to the carers in their area by generously donating the use of the hall for the group for one year.”
