Covid-19 Special Bulletin – April 2020
At this difficult time I am pleased that we are able to bring you this special edition Carers’ Bulletin with information and news for you. Carers in Devon are hugely important members of our families and communities. I want to acknowledge how much carers do to keep our most vulnerable people safe and as well as possible. You are important to us, as you are to the people you care for.
John Hart Leader of Devon County Council
