Coronavirus Covid-19 Update

The Carers Federation is committed to the safety and wellbeing of its clients, staff and the general public. This applies especially during the current outbreak of the Coronavirus, which some of you may know as COVID-19.

We regret that we have to follow Government advice and are suspending all but essential activity at our Nottingham and Gateshead offices. Our staff are working from home where possible and are all taking the steps necessary to limit the transmission of the virus.

We are staying up to date with the latest regulation and recommendations regarding the ongoing pandemic and as such, will review the situation daily. If you have any general enquiries we ask that you email us rather than call. If you don’t know which department to email, please contact info@carersfederation.co.uk
