Derbyshire Carers Association recognise that the responsibility of caring for someone who cannot manage at home without help often places great physical and emotional strain upon the Carer.
Whether you care for someone for a few hours a week or for 24 hours a day, we can offer you a wide range of confidential and independent services, helping you to care.
We also campaign for better resources, help with planning of services with appropriate agencies, and liaise with organisations with similar aims.
Our Telephone Befriending service aims to provide a regular friendly phone-call from a trained volunteer for companionship, a listening ear and support to isolated Carers living in Derbyshire (excluding Derby city) who are in need of social contact.
