I’ve joined this community to help find some overnight home carers for my disabled niece on Friday nights who lives in Clevedon. Where do I start? Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hi @HelloYou - & welcome to the community. Have you tried asking your Local Authority to see if they can advise? You also might try social media, e.g. if your town has a Facebook page you might advertise there. Scope has some info on this which may be helpful.

    Welcome to the community @HelloYou :) How are you doing today? 

    Thanks for posting your question. Just to let you know, I've moved it into a different category and tweaked the title slightly so that it'll be easier for other members to find. 

    I'd second what chiarieds has said. Please do take a look through that page and see whether any of it could be an option for you. Have you tried advertising online?
