Register to Specialist e-Learning platform to gain access to topics such as dementia, mental health, physical disability, infection protection and end of life care. These sessions are primarily for health and care professionals, but unpaid carers may still find the content helpful.
If you’re an unpaid carer or if you know of anyone who is, we hope you can use and share these resources, especially during these unprecedented times where the care unpaid carers provide are greatly relied on.
