Current Carers’ Voice Projects

EXPRESSION OF INTEREST

Carers Assessments are your chance to talk about the impact of looking after your family member or friend on you, as well as what could support you to look after them.

Derbyshire All Age Carers Support Service wants your help to redesign Carers Assessments.

We want to make sure that Carers Assessments are asking the right questions in the most accessible way.

We are looking for a small group of carers to join us for meetings from October-December that will help us to review Carers Assessments for Derbyshire.

Please email carersvoice@derbyshirecarers.co.uk or ring 07816 283550 if you would like to get involved.

Derbyshire Carers’ Voice

Do you want to share your experiences as a carer? Or want to have a voice in the prioritising, planning and design of support for carers?

Whether you want to share your general experiences as a carer, or have concerns about a particular issue, there are a number of ways to get involved, from online surveys, to in person panels, to one-on-one interviews.

We want to hear from you!

So please join our county-wide coproduction Carers’ Voice group by contacting carersvoice@derbyshirecarers.co.uk, or ringing 07816 283550.

H-Connect

H-Connect, in partnership with Carers’ Voice, want to hear about your experiences of hospital discharge and your suggestions about how to improve support for carers when they or their loved ones are leaving hospital.

If you or the person that you look after has been hospitalised, or you are a carer who works in a hospital setting, we want to hear from you!

More details about the H-Connect project can be found here: https://derbyshirecarers.co.uk/hospital-discharge-liaison-project

Please email carersvoice@derbyshirecarers.co.uk or ring 07816 283550 to get involved.
