Courses for carers

These programmes are available to unpaid carers who live in Torbay and care for someone living here. Unless otherwise stated programmes are provided free of charge.

You can either apply online or by using the application form in the Carers Education Brochure.

If you have any questions please contact us at Signposts for Carers on 01803 666620 or our contact form.

Our staff training programmes are also accessible to carers, both face-to-face training, and online training. If there is training that you think you might benefit from that isn’t available via carers education, especially training that is more medical, please contact Signposts on 01803 666620 or via our contact form to find out more.

Courses

Our courses are listed in date order, alongside our ongoing online learning options. Select any course title to expand and read its full description.

When course bookings are open, use the checkbox list following the descriptions to select your choices. You can select a maximum of three courses before filling out your details.

If the booking form is unavailable, it means our current courses have finished and we are working on our next set of courses. However, you can still access our year-round online learning resources.

In addition to the courses provided by Torbay Carers in Torbay, Devon Recovery Learning Community provides free courses for people with experience of mental health difficulties, their family and friends. For more information, please visit Recovery Devon.
