The service will signpost to specialist legal advice, representation, or support services as appropriate. You will work alongside a team of Information and Advice workers and will contribute to the continued development of the service. The information and Advice element of the service (known as I&A) supports carers with a range of issues, including carers rights, accessing grants, access to support, welfare benefits, emergency care, planning & signposting to local community groups.
