Calderdale
Carers Project - the aims
The
main aims of the project are to raise awareness about carers
and their needs and to provide a contact point for advice
and information.
The project facilitates carers support groups, administers
an emergency card, also produces a quarterly newsletter and
has a wide range of information leaflets for any carers to
access. We have a specific fund to pay for and arrange transport
and sitters to enable carers to attend events the project
organises.
Trustees of the project are: Stephen Barker,
Iris O’Donnell, Roy Conway, Sue Pears, Margaret Williamson,
Pat Reynolds, Christopher Ide, Sheila Riddle, John Kiddle and Tracy Thornton. |
