Councillor Gurmail Lal, Hounslow's cabinet member for adult social care and health services, said: "Many people might not think of themselves as a carer, but for those they look after it is a vital role so we need to make sure carers know what help is available to support them.
"Residents looking after family, a partner or a friend because of their disability, frailty or ill health without receiving payment could be entitled to some much-needed support and the aim of the information stalls is to make this available to as many carers as possible."
For more information visit carers@hounslow.gov.uk or call 020 8583 3022.
