Visiting the Information Hub
North Staffs Carers prides itself on offering Carers access to relevant up to date resources relating to caring role, as well as other individual requirements which assists them in making informed choices in their Caring roles.
Within the Carers Centre we have an Information Hub which holds over 500 pieces of information which is constantly rotated on display in the hub and is updated quarterly.
It is vital that Carers are aware of local services and support which they and their relatives can access. All information is easy to read, understand and available in various formats on request.
In addition the Hub provides information displays that focus on awareness weeks to provide Carers with information to assist them and maintain their own health and wellbeing.
North Staffs Carers website www.carerfirst.com
allows Adult/Young Carers access 24 hours a day 7 days a week
to information and advice which is interactive, engaging and up to date.
Laptops and IPads are available in the Carers Centre for Carers to look up information on the internet
or to keep touch with family members and friends.
The Information Hub can be accessed during the Centre Opening Times:
Monday – Friday 10.00 a.m. – 4.00 p.m.
There is no need to make an appointment just call in.
