Launch of Reaching Out to Carers Innovation Fund
Saturday, October 16th, 2010 | Posted in :
The Government wants carers to be able to maintain a life of their own alongside their caring responsibilities. It is keen to improve early identification of carers so that they can be supported in considering their various options and make informed choices about their lives. The Department of Health are therefore targeting a specific scheme at voluntary sector organisations in England who, in addition to their primary work with individuals with particular conditions, illnesses or with particular age groups, are also keen to support carers.
