ADULT placement carers are invited to a free cele- bration event at Huddersfield's Galpharm Stadium.

The event, from 7.30pm on Wednesday, February 23, is also open to people interested in becoming carers.

Adult placement carers provide support and care for people in their own home or the home of the person needing the service.

They care for older people, and for people with physical and/or learning disabilities.

Clr Dennis Hullock, Kirklees Council Cabinet member with responsibility for health and social services, said: "Carers have a vital and worthwhile role in providing support for vulnerable people."

There will be a chat, followed by a disco and buffet. To book a place, or to gain more information, phone 01484 226528.
