People in Kingskerswell who give help to relatives or friends who are ill, disabled, elderly or in need of emotional support are to be offered free support from trained tutors. This is part of an extra £1 million investment from NHS Devon so carers across the county can benefit from a wider range of services, including access to carers breaks and health and wellbeing checks. The free Looking After Me (LAM) course, run by NHS Devon, will benefit adults, who may not realise they are carers, but look after people with many long-term health conditions. These include diabetes, asthma, MS, arthritis and Alzheimer’s disease.
