AN information day on the council’s award-winning emergency system for vulnerable elderly residents will be held tomorrow (Friday, September 30).

Epping Forest Careline is a 24-hour emergency alarm service for vulnerable residents in the district.

The service is looking to expand by offering a service to housing association residents and a CCTV monitoring system.

The information afternoon will be held in Parsonage Court, Rectory Lane, Loughton from 2pm to 4pm where Careline workers will be on-hand to explain the service in more detail.

Careline recently received the Telecare Services Association’s Accreditation award.
