About this Event
Workshops for carers, including Deaf BSL users, deaf and hard-of-hearing carers
Your experience can help improve support for carers in Derby.
Carers are important, but many carers do not get the support they need. This includes Deaf BSL users, deaf and hard-of-hearing people, and carers from all communities.
Derby Carers Connect is working with Derby City Council and local services to improve support.
What we will do
- Share experiences
- Talk about problems getting support
- Look at barriers (for example, communication and access)
- Work together
- Agree simple ideas and next steps
