Sponsor Paulette

After seeing how others had raised over £1082 for Lambeth Carers by participating in the sponsored walk in June , Paulette Samuels was inspired to do something to help and has amazingly offered to do a sponsored slim for us with the aim of losing 2 stone in weight. With Christmas in the middle it was a hard slog as anyone can imagine. Paula wants to reach her target weight by the end of May 2009 so please sponsor her and make it all worthwhile.

Please, please support Paula by clicking on the following link and sponsoring her:

Good luck and thank you from all at Lambeth Carers Paulette.

90 Minute Group

 

Run by Rob Finley, Group worker at St Christophers Hospice, this is a time in the week for you to meet with others who are caring for someone with a chronic illness who is thought to be near the end of their life.

 

Over the six weeks, a number of people who work in Healthcare and other professions will be invited to come to:

 

             give useful information

            help develop practical skills

           share some helpful ways of coping with life as a carer

 

There will be no more than 12 people in the group.  The group will be made up of carers linked to the Lambeth St Christopher's At Home Teams and Lambeth Carers.  For those who need it, we can offer transport and/or arrange for someone to stay with your relative/friend while you attend the group.

 

          The 90 minute group is an opportunity to focus on you and your wellbeing   

             It is not a therapy group, but rather a time for group members to share what helps

 

The group will meet on Friday April 3rd, 17th, 24th and May 1st, 8th and 15th. If you would like to attend this group or find out more about it please contact Rob Finley on 020-8768-4596
