A big thank you to Keren for taking the first half hour of the meeting in my absence. Our speaker today from Carers UK had to reschedule for next week and Andrew was unable to join us as he had a work emergency.

The session today was therefore open to all members to raise and talk about any concerns and challenges.  As some of the discussions referred to previous matters discussed, I have copied some of my last week’s report below for everyone’s information.

There was also some discussion about choosing care homes. Please see the link below which provides a directory of all the care homes in Barnet and also provides advice.

I have included Mike Rich CEO of Barnet Carers in this report and also Marcelo Navarro -Director of a care company for your information if you need to contact them.

Please also see below the contact details of our speaker last week – Rachel Burley-Stower a solicitor from Martin Searle Solicitors
