Newham Carers’ Network delivers a whole range of information, advice and support services to anyone who provides voluntary support on a regular basis to a family member or friend who experiences ill-health or disability.
We work with carers of adults, parent carers of children with disabilities and young carers and are in touch with one thousand five hundred carers in Newham, the majority of whom are from black and ethnic minority communities.
Newham Carers’ Network offers:
- A high quality casework and advocacy service providing information, advice and support to carers on a range of complex issues including health and social services, benefits, housing, transport, education and training
- A young carers’ service providing a package of support
and activities for young carers
- Assistance and support for carers’ groups
- Facilitation and a package of support for elected carer representatives in Newham
- A partnership project with Newham Primary Care Trust to assist carers in getting more support from primary care services
