Encouraging Carers to identify themselves and to access services
Carers may not see themselves as being in need of services. Many may feel that they are simply carrying out ordinary responsibilities as part of a family.
People can become Carers at any point in their lives sometimes with no warning. We have worked with Carers for over 30 years and have experience of working with Carers in all areas of their lives.
Whether you care for a parent, spouse, child, friend, etc. here you will find an extensive range of online advice and information to help you in your caring role.
Whether you work in the Education, Health or Social Services sector we have compiled a range of resources that will help you in your work both better understand and support carers of all ages.
Have you had difficulties raising concerns about personalised services, services bought with direct payments, care agencies, health services, social services or local support organisations?
The Big Energy Saving Network delivers an extensive programme of outreach to vulnerable consumers, focused on helping them reduce their energy costs and consumption.
Every day people in the UK go hungry for reasons ranging from redundancy to receiving an unexpected bill on a low income. A simple box of food makes a big difference, with foodbanks helping prevent crime, housing loss, family breakdown and mental health problems.
