If you are an unpaid carer, are you aware of Kernow Carers Service?
Kernow Carers Service holds free forums as a service for unpaid carers to give them an opportunity to discuss the issues they face and have their voices heard in a welcoming and confidential environment, with others facing similar problems. There are many people in our community who are unaware of the help they can get and who also may not recognise themselves as carers because they look after a relative or friend.
Staff from Kernow Carers Service will be at the meetings, and will be able to give help and advice to carers, including making referrals to Carer Support Workers (CSWs) who work directly with individual carers to help them with any issues they have, including signposting to benefits and services.
The next meeting of the Truro Forum will be held at Ashtorre Rock Old Ferry Road Waterside Saltash PL12 4GT on Thursday 24th May 2018 from 1.00 pm to 3.00 pm. All Carers are welcome and expenses will be considered to enable them to attend.
