Kingston Council works closely with Kingston Carer’s Network to organise the Kingston Carers Board. This Board is helping to deliver The Kingston All Age Carers Strategy, and brings together organisations that offer information and support services to unpaid carers in the borough. The Carers Board are always keen to hear from as many carers as possible.
Work with us to help design social care services for you and people you care about. Get involved and have your say by joining the Carers Board. We value the insights of people with lived experience, and we recognise them as ‘experts by experience’. An expert by experience is someone who has personal experience using health and social care services, including family members and carers. We want to partner with experts by experience to co-produce our services. Co-production means working together equally to design services and make decisions that work for everyone. It's based on the principle that people who use a service are best placed to help design it.
The next meeting is on Tuesday 20th May (1-3pm). This is an opportunity to get to know the Board and find out about what we're working on. The meeting will be in person in Kingston and carer's travel expenses can reimbursed.
If you would like to join the Board or to find out more please email: adultscommissioning@kingtson.gov.uk or call 020 8547 5000.
Let's work together to make a positive difference.
