Ask Mike - Get your carers questions answered
2027-06-01 12:30 - 13:15, 2027-06-08 12:30 - 13:15 | Online
Whether you are new to caring or have been caring for some time, you will know that things are constantly changing – both in your caring role and in the environment around you.
Carers often have a myriad of questions, and they do not come all at once but crop up as life takes its turns. There is a huge amount of information out there, especially on the internet, but with that comes the question of what information you can trust.
We are going to experiment with a new weekly drop-in between now and the begining of June. Run on Zoom (details below) you can come and get the answers to any questions that you might have and if we cannot answer them directly, we will find someone who can.
So whether it is about local transport, benefits and entitlements, or anything else that might be on your mind. Just pop along to the weekly Ask Mike session and get the answers that you need.

Lunchtime Learning – Safeguarding for Carers

Join us by Zoom every week for the Carers Community. This meeting is all about you so we will be experimenting to make sure we get a format that is right for people. It will be led mostly by Mike Rich, CEO at Barnet Carers but – when Mike is not available will be covered by others.
We would like to discuss a specific topic every week for part of the meeting and have a general discussion in the first part. But we can discuss this as we go along.
