What is the Carers Emergency Card?
The Carers Emergency Card helps a carer register an emergency plan, so that if there is an emergency the person they care for will not be left at risk. For more information about how to register for a card vist our Carers Emergency Card webpage or phone us on: (01904) 715490.
We are a network member of the Princess Royal Trust for Carers.
