Carers Count Action

The forum is so important as it offers us carers the rare opportunity to share our feedback openly in a safe and non-judgmental space. It also allows us to help to shape the services and support available to us all going forward.

Carers Count Action was initially set up to give carers across the region their own voice to help shape the way that Carers Count services are delivered and to provide feedback on the support available currently and in the future.

 

Taking its lead from the highly successful Kirklees Mental Health Carers Forum - which has been fundamental in helping to implement changes in local services -  Carers Count Action is run in partnership with carers and we welcome all carers from across Kirklees to engage with us and help us to improve the services we offer. 

 

The main aims and goals of the forum are:

We actively welcome all carers to get involved in any way to help shape the future of Carers Count services across Kirklees.

 

Carers Count provides the facilities to host the meeting (on Zoom and face-to-face) and follow-up minutes are sent to all attendees. Forum members are also invited back to follow-up sessions wherever possible.

 

“The forum is so important as it offers us carers the rare opportunity to share our feedback openly in a safe and non-judgmental space. It also allows us to help to shape the Carers Count services and support available to us all going forward.

 

“I’ve found it helpful in allowing me to share experiences and best practices with others in the area, speak to professionals that I wouldn’t usually have the access to and find out how best to access the support out there."
