Across the UK today 5.8 million people are carers – supporting a loved one who is older, disabled or seriously ill.
Caring will touch each and every one of us in our lifetime, whether we become a carer or need care ourselves. Whilst caring can be a rewarding experience, it can also impact on a person’s health, finances and relationships.
Carers UK is here to listen, to give carers expert information and tailored advice.
We champion the rights of carers and support them in finding new ways to manage at home, at work, or in their community.
We’re here to make life better for carers.
