The West Yorkshire and Harrogate Health & Care Partnership unpaid carers programme has developed this Coronavirus Plan B document which can help you to plan for who could help you in an emergency if you look after someone who couldn’t manage without your support.
Carers Leeds is committed to adhering to the strictest advice and protocols advised by the NHS. The wellbeing of carers, visitors, volunteers and our staff is our absolute priority, and you can be assured that this issue has our complete attention.
All support groups, events, drop-ins, meetings and other face to face activities are now cancelled until further notice.
