Carer Support Service Review

West Sussex County Council and NHS Sussex are reviewing the way Carer Information, Advice, Assessment and Support Services are delivered to adult unpaid family and friend carers.

We are now half way through the delivery of the West Sussex Joint Carers Strategy (opens in new window) and we want to get the views from as many adult carers as possible on what is working well for them and the issues they are currently experiencing.

Not sure if someone is a carer? If they help a family member, child, friend, or neighbour that:

• is frail
• has a disability or special needs
• has a chronic illness and/or
• has a mental illness
• has dementia/Alzheimer’s
• has a substance misuse problem with drugs or alcohol

and that person is dependent on your help, then you are a carer.

Your views are very important to us. Thank you.

You can answer the questions by clicking the link below.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete.

An easy read version of the survey is available and can be accessed below. If you would like a printed copy and a prepaid return envelope please contact us at the details below.
