BBC Radio 4 broadcaster becomes patron for Cumbrian charity
Caz Graham, The new patron of Carer Support South Lakes
A BBC Radio 4 broadcaster who was touched by the impact caring has had on her friends has become a patron for a charity that supports them.
Carlisle-born Caz Graham says she’s excited and honoured at being announced as the first-ever patron of the charity Carer Support South Lakes, which supports hundreds of unpaid carers each year.
Caz says she began to fully understand the vital role the charity plays after seeing close friends become carers for their loved ones.
“Nobody knows when it is going to happen, and nobody really understands it until it touches you or your close friends,” she said.
