Carers get connected

A feature story from the BBC News website last week reports on the new Connecting for Care forum for paid and unpaid carers.

Connecting for Care is said to be about providing:

"...resources and support to assist with the daily situations experienced by all carers.

By providing a forum for various groups of carers to communicate, we hope you will be able to provide and receive tips as well as share advice with other carers."


Further details:

"It provides ways to not only improve the quality of healthcare and reduce the burden on carers, but also to connect people and build a sense of community.

Connecting for Care seeks to utilise the latest communication and Internet technologies to connect all types of carers with the support, tools and information they need, in recognition of their achievements and in the hope of bettering the coordination of care among all groups."
