We are delighted to share this podcast in which local carer Michael talks to Age Scotland about his experiences of being a carer. Please click on the link below to listen to the audio recording.
Michael is a member of our Carers’ Panel. This is is a group of carers and former carers who meet on a monthly basis to discuss potential solutions to common problems, comment on service providers proposals and lobby for changes to improve the lives of carers and the people they care for. The aim of the group is to strengthen the collective voice of carers in East Lothian.
If you would like to join the Carers’ Panel or find out more about its work, please get in touch in 0131 665 0135 or at centre@coel.org.uk.
