Volunteer Role: Carer Connect Telephone Support

Sheffield Carers Service supports adult unpaid carers who look after a relative, partner, or friend who is unable to manage alone due to disability, illness, frailty, a mental health problem or an addiction. As a local charity, the input of volunteers helps us enormously, as an hour or two of your time each week goes a long way to help us support carers. Whether it’s helping at the events we arrange, or simply being someone who listens, your support gives unpaid carers the chance to rest, recharge, and maintain their own wellbeing.

​

Our ‘Carer Connect’ telephone support service aims to reduce social isolation and re-connect carers with communities. Our volunteers phone carers on a weekly or fortnightly basis, providing a chance for them to speak to someone neutral about their caring situation. Or sometimes, it may just be to have a chat about anything other than their caring role.
