Carers have been consistent in their call for better collaboration and communication between services, and so we are proud to have many other health, social and third sector organisations collaborating with our Carers’ Voice consultation iniative, including:
Time Swap
We are aware that carers have a huge wealth of experience and knowledge to share, but finding the time to get involved can be challenging. Therefore we have partnered with Time Swap. Time Swap is a local service that encourages communities to help each other by sharing skills, talents and time.
Our partnership with Time Swap means that if you spend an hour talking to Carers’ Voice, sharing your caring experiences, then you could earn time back and receive help from someone else with DIY, running errands or even teaching you a new skill!

Healthwatch Derbyshire
Healthwatch Derbyshire are an independent health and social care champion. They have the power to make sure NHS leaders and other decision makers listen to local feedback and improve standards of care.
If you use GPs and hospitals, dentists, pharmacies, care homes or any other health and care services in Derbyshire, Healthwatch Derbyshire want to hear about your experiences, so relevant feedback from the Carers’ Voice consultations is shared with Healthwatch Derbyshire anonymously.
