New Staff at Powys Carers Service

Hello everyone, my name is Anne O'Brien and I have just taken up the post of Administration Assistant here in Llandrindod Wells.

Over the coming months I am sure that I will be speaking to many of you. I will be working to support the office and will be setting up the information library, which will be available to you all in the future.
New Outreach Worker for Mid Powys

Sarah Baker will be joining the team as outreach worker for adult carers, covering Radnor and N. Brecknock. She will start on the 22nd June 2004, and during a short induction period will be setting up her telephone and getting settled in to the team. When her telephone and email are confirmed we will let all carers in the area know! We hope that everyone will make Sarah welcome, and we all look forward to her joining Powys Carers Service.

A message from Philip Moody

Adult Carer Outreach Worker in Montgomeryshire

Hi, Well it has been nearly 6 months since I started work and it seems to have gone so fast (it must be my age). Seriously, it has been a busy time meeting with many of the social services teams and the voluntary agencies that seek to support carers in the Montgomeryshire area. It has been encouraging meeting with old friends I have worked with in the past and getting to know new people.
One thing I’m sure of is, life can be complicated as a carer with so many people to be in touch with in order to get support, and I hope I can help you through the information maze.

I would like to thank those of you who have shown me hospitality and shared your experiences, which have been very valuable in developing my role. To those of you I have met, I hope I have been some help and support. To mark Carers Week I have booked a band called Platform Soul to play on Friday 18th June at the Monty Club, Newtown. This will enable you to meet other carers but most of all have a good night out. At the moment I have a long list of carers on my computer, however I would prefer to meet you in person, so do try to come along on the 18th and say hello.

Philip Moody.
