Support for carers
Whether you are a friend, family member or a carer concerned about the wellbeing of someone, we can give you the help and expert advice that you may need to support the safety and wellbeing of the person you are caring for.
Many products can be linked to a person so that an alert can be raised to someone close at hand.
When you contact us to enquire about our services you will speak to a professionally qualified adviser who will provide information, advice and assistance on matters relating to health, social care and wellbeing. Our team will ask you what’s important to the individual you are caring for and to you, this will help us understand the situation and put together a bespoke package of practical advice and technology that will best meet your needs. Our key aim is to help people live as independently as possible for as long as possible.

The card is valid for 3 years and you can reapply when it expires if you are still an unpaid carer.
