🎙️ Hello and welcome to Caring Out Loud - a podcast by Carers, for Carers, with Derbyshire Carers Association 💙

In this episode, we’re looking at something we all hope we never have to face: what happens when there is an emergency and you need support with your caring responsibilities 🚨🤝

We explore how Carers can plan ahead for emergencies, the support available if someone needs to step in temporarily, and why having a plan in place can provide reassurance for both you and the person you care for. While we hope you’ll never need to use it, knowing who to turn to in a moment of need can make all the difference 🙏

We're also joined by Vickie and Nicki from Universal Services for Carers, now part of Derby Carers Information, Advice and Support Service following Derbyshire Carers Association's successful tender award in April. They talk to us about Just In Case Plans and Carers Cards, simple tools that can help ensure important information is available when it's needed most.

So, if you’re a Carer, join us as we talk about planning ahead, finding support, and making sure you’re not facing an emergency alone 💙
