Age Scotland (advice for carers)
This link will take you to the Age Scotland website.They provide a fantastic range of information and advice on many different issues such as housing, legal issues, saving money on your energy bills, eating well and common health conditions. Much of this is available in free leaflets that you can download or print off.
Part of their services include an Information and Advice team. Their staff and volunteers specialise in answering enquiries from older people, their carers and families. Whether your question is about community care, tax, pensions, benefits or any other issue, they will find an answer. They are also there for callers looking for a chat – this could be about what you’ve been doing, what’s important to you or even just what you’ve been watching on the television.
