Parents and carers

Benefits and financial support, self directed support, independent advocacy, mental health support and links to other support agencies.

Benefits and support

Help with money and benefits, household bills, local support, help for veterans, food banks and warm spaces.

Independent Advocacy

Independent advocacy can have a preventative role and stop situations from escalating. It can help assist individuals and groups to develop the skills, confidence and understanding to speak up for themselves in the future.

Financial support for carers

Caring can have a big impact on finances with many carers being forced to cut down their working hours or leave paid work altogether. The costs of living can also be higher for carers who may have additional costs related to food, heating or equipment for the person they care for.
