Main York Carers Centre's leaflet

File details:

We've just got a new York Carers Centre leaflet. It briefly explains what a carers is and the sort of help we offer unpaid carers. We will try to get this leaflet into as many places as possible in York so that we can reach carers who might not have heard of us before.
