Essential skills for mental health, first aid, and caregiving

What is Care24?
Coleg Sir Gâr’s Care24 program supports individuals working in or entering Carmarthenshire’s care sector. This sector includes child care, community care, residential support, and more.
Care24 enhances skills and knowledge across the county, beginning with the Carmarthenshire Care Solutions program. Our training progresses to specialist courses tailored to employer needs and development pathways for those new to or already in the care field.
We celebrate and promote the care sector by engaging with the local community and employers to highlight career opportunities in health and social care. Whether you are new to the industry or have years of experience, Care24 can help you advance your skills and deliver high-quality care.
