Carers

 

If you look after a family member, friend, partner or neighbour then you are a carer. And if either you or they live in Lambeth, then we are here to support you.

 

Sometimes the hardest part is knowing where to start, but there are lots of ways we can help you

What happens when you contact us for the first time

We’ll begin by giving you a call to find out about your situation.

  • You may just need some information, in which case we will send you what you need via email or post.

  • You can download our guide about the support on offer in Lambeth, and the ways we can help. 

  • You may be offered a one to one appointment with a member of the team.

  • We can meet you at your home, our offices or a suitable community setting.

  • We will use this appointment to explore any challenges that you are facing.

  • We’ll then work alongside you to create a plan that is tailored to your needs, and we'll help you put it into action.

If you are interested in accessing our service, you can register online here.

Creative, Social and Wellbeing Activities

Every month we work hard to offer our carers the opportunity to take a break from their responsibilities. We have previously visited beaches, parks, museums and the theatre. We also offer creative courses and seasonal celebrations at nearby venues. Registered carers should keep an eye out for our monthly emails to find out what is coming up and sign up for activities!
