Our Carers Leads Network had a good discussion today around creative use of #directpayments and galvanising family support to help carers. We’re trying to collate good practice around this too - if you have any great examples please let us know! @lyndonpeasley @brookemawson
Please remember it's OK for unpaid carers to visit vulnerable family members and friends to provide care. It's allowed within the Govt guidance, and has never been more important.

A couple of spaces have opened up on the Adult #socialcare workshop in #Dewsbury#Kirklees on Monday 29th - if you are a #carer or you access adult social care, please check out the link and RT https://t.co/ivfCESYGGj …
Great to see this @Touchstone_Spt - #Kirklees Adult Social Care is always looking for ways to give #carers and people who access support more #shared choice in how services are delivered. We currently have 2 workshops in #Huddersfield and #Dewsbury https://t.co/zova4oQxwZ
If you happen to be near one of these screens please do pop in and help us understand carers info needs more. These screens are around for this month only so don't put it off!
