SUPPORT for carers
Being a carer is often a very time consuming and difficult role, both emotionally and physically.
Our Time for You service is aimed at giving carers some time to themselves – whether to go shopping, read a book, or attend a weekly activity group - the choice is yours!
Our trained volunteers are able to sit with those who need care for an hour or two a week, providing companionship for the loved one and reassurance for the carer.
This service is available for £5 per hour or is free if you have an assessment from Devon Carers in place.
Please be aware that we would not be able to do any physical caring such as feeding / washing / administering medicines.
All of our Time for You volunteers have Enhanced DBS Certificates.

"It's such a relief to know that I can go out on a regular basis without worrying"
