Carers Link Lancashire and n-compass Northwest working together in partnership to deliver carers services across Lancashire. 

​

For many years adult carers living in Lancashire have been supported by Carers services which have been run independently

.
The good news is that from 1st July 2019 a new service has been commissioned bringing the two entities; Carers Link Lancashire and n-compass Northwest together.

 

We will work in a new partnership called The Lancashire Carers Service which will deliver support for all.

Everyone will benefit from shared knowledge, combined resources and an improved carer awareness across Lancashire.

​

The new Lancashire Carers Service will continue to support Carers providing Carers Assessments, Peace of Mind 4 Carers Plans and a range of support which enables Carers to take a break from their caring role.
