Carers Rights Day
Friday December 02 2011
Families across the country are struggling with high household bills and worries about jobs. But families affected by illness and disability can struggle more than most - as they struggle with the additional costs of caring and often lost earnings as a result of illness and disability. This means that there has never been a more important time for carers to know their rights and access all the financial and practical support they are entitled to.
Each year Carers UK runs Carers Rights Day, working with hundreds of local groups, businesses and charities across the country to support carers in their area.
The theme for this year's Carers Rights Day is simple: Money Matters - because without support, we know that carers can end in debt, struggling to pay essential bills and sometimes sick with the stress of it.
Carers Rights Day is about getting carers the information and advice they need to claim benefits, get a carer’s assessment and access support.
If you are able to run an event near you - big or small - we can offer free resources to help.
