Worcestershire Integrated Carers Hub

The Worcestershire Integrated Carers Hub provides a single point of access to information, advice and support for Worcestershire’s 63,000 unpaid adult carers. The Hub builds on the services delivered by Worcestershire Association of Carers by providing a one stop shop for carers. The services that we provide include: - Carer Pathway Advisors: They provide information, advice and support by telephone and in drop in information points across the county. - Health and Social Care Engagement and Community & Partnerships: The two teams work closely with partner organisations to raise awareness of the needs of carers, help us reach more carers and improve carer’s access to Hub services. - Carer training: Adult carers can access information, advice, support and training, tailored to their individual needs all in one place. - Listening Ear: A telephone befriending service which supports those who are caring for someone close to the end of their life. - Carer Talktime: Regular telephone contact with one of our trained volunteers to reduce the isolation that carers can experience. - Carer Groups: These support groups are held once a month throughout the county, run by carers but supported by WAC.
