03 February 2020Survey of Carers
SURVEY OF CARERS Do you look after a family member, partner or friend? Public Health Northamptonshire want to hear from you. Carers in Northamptonshire are being encouraged to share their experiences in an online survey to help shape future services. A carer is anyone, including children and adults who looks after a family member, partner or friend who needs help because of their illness, frailty, disability, a mental health problem or an addiction and cannot cope without their support. The outcomes will help to review the current and future health, care and wellbeing needs of carers in Northamptonshire and inform the future planning and commissioning of services available. Carers can respond anonymously if they wish and all responses will remain confidential. The survey can be accessed at https://northamptonshire.citizenspace.com/public-health/carers-services-2020 and should take no more than 10 minutes to complete. The survey closes on Friday 14 February 2020. If you have any questions about the survey or any of the other Public Health engagement activities, please contact Julia Partridge, Public Health Officer, Northamptonshire County Council at jpartridge@northamptonshire.gov.uk.
