The hard work and dedication of social workers at Westmorland and Furness Council is being celebrated this week to mark World Social Work Day (March 19).
Residents of Westmorland and Furness are being urged to spread the festive cheer and send Christmas cards to their local care homes and day centres this December.
Cumbria’s Safeguarding Adults Board have been raising awareness of safeguarding this week as part of a week of national action co-ordinated by The Ann Craft Trust.
Residents of Westmorland and Furness are being encouraged to consider becoming “Shared Lives” carers after the council significantly increased their weekly allowance.
Westmorland and Furness Council would like to work alongside people who access Adult Social Care and involve them in shaping care and support services for individuals, families and communities.
