Digital Resources for Carers

 

Caring for a family member or friend who is ill, disabled or older can be valuable and rewarding, but without the right support, caring can have an impact on your health, your job, your finances and your social life. Below we have provided a range of digital resources to support you in your caring role.

Carers UK – Online Support Resources

Lincolnshire County Council have teamed up with Carers UK to offer carers free access to their Digital Resource for Carers.

This website is packed with helpful information and resources, e-learning modules, hands-on guides and tools to help carers manage their caring responsibilities and look after themselves. It covers areas such as:

  • Health and Wellbeing
  • Practical Support
  • Financial Support
  • Technology and equipment
  • Home adaptations
