Our Research Approach
Research Themes and Activities
Investigating carer strain and creating pathways for early support.
Invisible Strain
Unpaid carers frequently endure a gradual, invisible build-up of stress, fatigue, and emotional strain. This unseen accumulation often reaches a critical point before friends, family, or professionals recognize the need for support. Our research aims to shed light on these hidden dynamics to foster early intervention.
Research-Driven
Drawing from extensive research and direct carer insights, SolasBand investigates how early wellbeing check-ins can be formed separately from support frameworks aimed at care recipients, ensuring carers’ individual needs are recognised and addressed promptly.
Preventative Focus
Focusing on early identification of hidden strain, SolasBand aims to create approaches for proactive wellbeing support. This preventive strategy aspires to reduce emergency interventions and empower carers with sustained resilience.
