City of Wolverhampton Council has called on local carers to provide input on the refresh of its support website.

Its carer support team has published a channel for expressions of interest for improving its digital offer for carers, saying it wants to make the site more user-friendly and provide other tools to support people in their caring role.

Cllr Jasbir Jaspal, cabinet member for adults and wellbeing, said: “We want to work with carers to understand what information, advice and support they need to care for their loved ones, whilst maintaining their own health and wellbeing.

“We want to find out what barriers, if any, they face when searching for information online, and what steps we could take to make things easier for them.

“We would like to hear from carers who would be willing to work with us to develop an online offer which is easily accessible and user friendly. Our aim to improve our online digital experiences for carers of all ages.”
