Havering: Indentifying and referring hidden carers workshops
Posted on:
The London Borough of Havering in partnership with Havering Carers Hub invite partners across the Council, Health, Community and Voluntary sector to help identify ‘hidden’carers and understand how to support them. Around 23,000 people identify themselvesas carers in Havering with only a small proportion known to services. These ‘hidden’carers, also known as ‘informal’ or ‘unpaid’ carers often do not have any help or support.
Training offered will cover:
- Definition of an informal carer & how to identify them
- Care Act 2015/Havering Carers Strategy
- Carer Assessments
- Carer tacit knowledge/expertise
- Referral pathways into Havering Carers Centre for support
