 More Health and Wellbeing Hubs will be across the county for the Bank Holiday weekend
Whilst you're out celebrating the Queen's Jubilee this weekend, why not visit one of our Health and Wellbeing Hubs and say hello to our friendly team! At the Hubs, you can ask the team any questions you may have and discover what free support is available near you.
Whether you're looking for information on loneliness, diet and nutrition, alcoholism, support with technology, finance, Covid-19 vaccinations or more, our team are available to help you find the right support for you.
We've added additional hubs to our schedule for this Jubilee weekend. Check the timetable to find a site near you.
Do you care?
Our figures show there could be as many as 243,440 unpaid carers in Nottinghamshire and Nottingham City. Each of these carers plays a vital role and during next week’s National Carers Week, we want carers to feel visible, valued and supported in Nottinghamshire.
We have worked with our partners and carers to launch CarersSpaceNotts to help carers have an equal voice in shaping policies and services. Any carer can get involved, so visit the website to find out more.
If you are a carer, the Nottinghamshire Carers Hub can offer you a range of support to meet your individual needs. It provides free, confidential and personalised information, advice and support for carers of all ages, including telephone and online support.
