‘Breaking the mould of Care provision in PH8.’

Wednesday August 27th, Guide Hall, Birnam 7.00pm

In 2024, a new care service was established in Dunkeld, covering the PH8 area. It was called ‘ PH8 Caring Support’ and was directly accountable to the local Development Trust The aims were to:

- increase the overall amount of care locally
- create local jobs
- connect to other local services
- give people the care they need in their own homes and communities

18 months later and with the number of Personal Assistants recruited now into double figures, we’re about to enter a new partnership with colleagues in Kinloch Rannoch. It will be a not-for- profit Social Enterprise, overseen by people from both localities and with a strong connection into both communities . It’s name will be Heartland Cares Ltd and it will build upon the success of PH8 Caring Support. We’ll continue to recruit and provide mentoring to Personal Assistants, and support Befrienders. But we’ll now be looking to take on Homecare workers to deliver Personal Care aswell. Our ambition is to establish a comprehensive care and support service, using local carers where possible and linking to others local services .

We’ll be explaining more about ‘What’s next’ on the evening of 27th August in the Guide Hall, Birnam from 7.00-8.00pm. If you’re interested, please do come along. We’d be delighted to meet you, whether you’re thinking about becoming a carer, thinking you or a family member might need care at some point , or simply wanting more information.

And if you can’t make it on the night, but would like to find out more, please contact Eilidh, our project coordinator on eilidhwild84@outlook.com

This project, developed in partnership with Rannoch Community Trust and Dunkeld, Birnam & District Community Development Trust, aims to ensure that our communities can receive high-quality care while remaining in their own homes. Locally this will build upon the work of PH8 Caring support, that has been taken forward by Eilidh wild.

We are now recruiting trustees to join the board of the new organisation. We need committed individuals who care about the future of local social care and want to play a part in guiding and supporting this initiative.
