566 people responded to the survey held last year
The results of a survey held late last year into the state of caring on the Isle of Man should act as a wake-up call for the wider community.
That's the message from Crossroads, which carried out the survey alongside the Department of Health and Social Care.
A total of 566 responded to the survey - many of whom revealed that they find their health and wellbeing, social life and relationships with others are impacted by their caring role.
Chief Executive Jackie Betteridge says carers underpin the health and social care system on the Island, and should be looked after too:
