The Volunteer Centre

Teignbridge Carers Break

We support Carers in the Teignbridge area by providing a sitting service, formerly known as the Carers Take A Break Sitting Service. We do not undertake personal care, but our service enables Carers to have a much-needed break during the day or overnight. We are also a recognised provider for the Devon Carers Link Voucher Scheme. For details of our charges, and information about the Voucher Scheme, click here or call the Co-ordinators on their direct line 01626 889288

The Outreach Benefits Service

Teignbridge Outreach Benefits Service offers a free home visiting service for carers to help identify and claim any benefits that they or the cared-for may be entitled to. The home visit enables and ensures the claimant receives full assistance, advice and help where necessary when applying for the various benefits.
