Westmorland and Furness Council’s Adult Social Care support has been praised for its person-centred approach, support for carers, keeping people safe, and for its pro-active prevention work to support health and wellbeing.
Cumbria’s Safeguarding Adults Board is raising awareness of safeguarding next week as part of National Safeguarding Adults Week 2025, a campaign coordinated by the Ann Craft Trust.
The Furness For You Partnership has officially launched its free website www.furnessforyou.org.uk to tackle social isolation, promote volunteering, and strengthen community ties.
We are aware that some Adult Social Care customers who receive Direct Payments to pay for their care and support have been experiencing problems with making payments on their pre-paid card.
Keeping physically and socially active has real benefits for people living with dementia and their families and carers. That's a key message at a free and fun drop-in event organised by the Eden Dementia Friendly Communities Partnership at Penrith Leisure Centre on May 22nd as part of Dementia Action Week.
