This support will include helping people with caring responsibilities to connect with friends and family\, community groups and wider support\, find wellbeing information and gain financial confidence. \n\n\n\nOur volunteer befrienders will work on a one-to-one basis with each carer on one or all of the following\, depending on their preference: ​ \n\n\n\n\nIncreasing connection to their local community\, improving overall social wellbeing and reducing any feelings of isolation. ​\n\n\n\nSupporting financial independence and knowledge of financial tools/support available.​\n\n\n\nAccess to practical support and tools for their physical wellbeing. ​\n\n\n\nBeing a regular listening ear and friendly face to offer support and guidance.​\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\n\nIn this webinar you will learn how our Let’s Care Together programme can support unpaid carers (over 18) with their wellbeing\, through pairing them with an online befriender. \n\n\n\nJoin this session to learn more about how your beneficiaries\, or colleagues with caring responsibilities could benefit from the programme. \n\n\n\nSpeakers \n\n\n\nUsha Manojkanth – BITC Programme Manager \n\n\n\nSimon Walters – BITC Programme Manager \n\n\n\nMichelle Brannen – BITC Programme Manager \n\n\n\nBooking\, contact details and further information\n\n\n\n\nEmail care@bitc.org.uk\, for any further questions.\n\n\n\nThe session will take place on Teams.\n\n\n\nJoining instructions will be sent before the event.\n\n\n\n\nAbout Business in the Community \n\n\n\nBusiness in the Community is the largest and longest-established movement dedicated to responsible business in the UK\, formed in 1982 and with HM The King as our Royal Founding Patron.
