Advice, Information and Training

"Since information was given we have been fixed up with an NHS Dentist - very satisfied - thank you." Mrs More, Burghead

"It never occurred to me that I was a carer and might be entitled to benefits until the Advice and Information service at Quarriers highlighted the fact. As a result my son now receives Disability Living Allowance and I get Carers Allowance." Mrs C, Burghead

We can provide information on a wide range of topics. No request is too small.

Did you know that:

If you are over 60, the Pension Service will come to your home and carry out an income maximisation assessment, to make sure that you are getting all that you are entitled to.
There is a vast range of equipment that might make living in the home easier for you and the person you care for.
There may be funding grants, loans available to you.
You may have certain rights as a carer.

We also run a number of training courses e.g. First Aid. If you would like to learn a new skill which would help you in your caring role, then let us know.

"I found the training really helpful and the environment very comfortable enabling me to speak openly" Mrs Murray, Keith
