  1. Covid-19 and Carers

Covid-19 and Carers

The impact of Covid-19 has drastically changed all of our lives for the time being and we know all too well that carers may be feeling that strain more than most. The resources below aim to provide Stockport's carers with useful information and links to help navigate the current situation practically, emotionally, and psychologically.

Signpost staff continue to work and are available at the other end of the phone to support you. You can ring us during office hours on 0161 442 0442, email [email protected] or Contact Us.
