Care in the Community Exhibition

In our church support to local people we have become aware of how complicated arrangements for care can be and so we aim to raise awareness of the help that is available and how people can access a range of opportunities in the sector.

So the Forest of Galtres Benefice is organising a Day Exhibition as an advice resource for carers, their families and potential carers who might welcome informal advice on their current or future needs of older people (not children or young people on this occasion).

We therefore invite your involvement in taking space for a table display as one of the important partners for care in our community.

It is planned to have a range of stands (advisors, table displays, banners, leaflets) with representatives from a wide variety of agencies in social care, community health, citizens advice and home security, ready to provide informal advice (with the option of confidential follow-up) on assistance and benefits available for community care.

There will be an opportunity to pick up literature for organisations unable to attend.

Entrance is free and refreshments will be available.

Please contact Roy Thompson, Churchwarden (Sheriff Hutton) if you need further information tel 01347 878644 thompsonroy5@gmail.com

The Forest of Galtres includes the parishes of Stillington, Marton, Sutton with Huby, Farlington and Sheriff Hutton
