East Linton Carers Support Group

Kathleen Jack and Anne Stewart run the East Linton Carers’ Group, which is part of the vibrant and developing Carers of East Lothian.  This friendly, informal group welcomes carers of any age who need support, information and direction to help them in their caring role.  Many people who spend time looking after someone else don’t realise that they have entitlements and rights – East Linton Carers can help with form filling, community care referrals, respite care and even free IT training.

 

Meets 1st Thursday of every month at 10.30am in the Lynton Centre.

On Monday, Wednesday and Friday, the Lynton Centre, next to East Linton’s Library, is a regular social hub for older people.  They often walk down, drop in for a coffee or meet friends for lunch (pre-booking definitely required!), and perhaps stay for afternoon activities, which can range from dominoes or mobile cinema to violin recitals.

 

If you think that you would enjoy these activities, then you are welcome to drop in for a coffee and a chat on a Mon/Wed/Friday morning.

 

Open Mon/Wed/Fri 9am -4pm.  All enquiries please contact Kate or Steph on 01620 860694.
