Medway says you can request a carer’s assessment by phone or email. If you’re a young carer, the request goes through Carers First instead.
| Who it’s for | How to request | Contact details |
|---|---|---|
| Adult carer | Phone or email Medway | 01634 334 466 ss.accessandinfo@medway.gov.uk |
| Young carer | Through Carers First | Request a young carer’s assessment online Phone: 0300 303 1555 Email: youngcarers@carersfirst.org.uk |
You do not need the permission of the person you care for, and they do not need to be receiving council services. If your situation changes, you can ask for a re-assessment at any time.
