Carers Count Selby is still working and accepting referrals during the current COVID-19 situation. You can use our usual phone number 0300 0120415 and email address selbydistrict@carerscount.org.uk. We are changing the way that we work at the moment. We are following government guidance on how we work safely. Most important is the health, wellbeing and safety of people we work with, our staff and volunteers. We are introducing different ways for the team to work with people during this time, including offering support over the phone and by video call. We have also had to take the difficult decision to stop our groups until further notice; we will stay in touch and look at different ways people can support each other.
Please see the bottom of this page for some links and documents you may find useful during this time. |
If you give time and energy, without being paid, to look after a family member or a friend then Carers Count can help you. This service is free, independent and confidential.
