Contingency planning

If you haven’t put anything in place already, you might find that developing a contingency plan gives some peace of mind. This page offers some tips: Creating a contingency plan | Carers UK

In Hampshire the county have commissioned the Princess Royal Trust for Carers to do this. An excellent scheme.

Endorsed, Bowlingbun - we are on this scheme too. However, emergency cover lasts only three days. It is good to have a longer-term contingency as well.
