How do we help?
We seek to provide help and support for the many people in the district who are able to live at home, only because of the constant support they receive from a relative or friend.
Often these Carers never have a break from their caring role and face increasing stress. The danger signs of this may not be obvious at first but the strain can take its toll, particularly in an emergency, such as the Carer falling ill. If this should happen the dependant may then have to leave home temporarily
or, possibly, permanently.
Crossroads, by providing regular or occasional/emergency respite to the Carer, can help to avoid this situation.

How do we work?
Crossroads will provide a Carer Support Worker, either on a regular or ad hoc basis.
They will attend the Carer's home and support the dependant, acting as a companion and friend, whilst the Carer takes a break.
We can help any day of the week between 8.00 am - 10.30 pm. Variable times may be arranged and we also provide overnight support.
