Becoming a Shared Lives carer Q&A

In this event, you'll have the chance to learn what it really means to be a Shared Lives carer.

We'll take you through a presentation about being a Shared Lives carer, followed by a short film about one of amazing Shared Lives arrangements.

Then you'll have the chance to hear from one of our Shared Lives carers and Shared Lives staff in our Q&A. We'll be having a chat with them about their experience and you'll have a chance to ask your own questions as well.

Becoming a Shared Lives carer is a really special role and the chance to a job where you really make a difference.

If you've heard about the Shared Lives carer role and always wanted to know more, nows your chance.
