Thanks to the fantastic support of EBC we hosted a networking breakfast on Thursday 13th June at Worcestershire County Cricket Club for Worcestershire Employers. As part of Carers Week we were delighted to be able to celebrate and champion local carers by inviting local employers to find out more about how their organisations can develop carer friendly workplaces and access expertise to support staff that are in a caring role. 
 
We were fortunate enough to be joined by Worcestershire Telecare who showcased some exciting new technologies designed to help us, or our loved ones, live more independently and access the support they may need in the future. Some of the case studies were fascinating and showed how technology has dramatically improved the lives of carers. 
 
Some existing Working for Carers members were in attendance as well as many other organisations who wanted to find out more about how to support carers in their workforce. Feedback has been extremely positive and we look forward to hosting more opportunities in the future.
