Crossroads Care Orkney 

Crossroads Care Orkney is a local charity which was established in 1994 with the aim of improving the life of Carers and those for whom they care by giving information, emotional support and practical help.

The initial funding came from the Princess Royal Trust for Carers, which was initiated by Her Royal Highness the Princess Royal in 1991, the Local Authority and NHS Orkney.

The service is run by a Volunteer Board of Directors, the Registered Manager Arlene Montgomery, Assistant Manager/Care Coordinator Sheila Ritch and Care Coordinator Steve Woods.  Finance Administrator/Receptionist is Claire Laughton.

There are 31 Support Workers who cover the Orkney Mainland and some of the Outer Islands.
