Carers Week, taking place from 10–16 June 2024, is a UK-wide awareness campaign seeking to increase visibility for carers with decision-makers, services, employers, communities, and businesses. So, during Carers Week, Lanarkshire Carers are coming together and;

"Putting Carers on the Map"

This year's theme highlights the invaluable contributions of carers across the UK and aims to ensure their voices are heard loud and clear. Together we want to help increase the visibility of the carers among politicians, employers and throughout our communities. By raising awareness we hope they will better recognise the challenges unpaid carers face and help them access the support they deserve.

Lanarkshire Carers are hosting a range of in-person activities across Lanarkshire for carers to take part in during Carers Week 2024.

Join them to take some time out, meet other carers and access some peer support. Take a look at what they have on offer and book a place on any of the activities that interest you. It may also be the ideal opportunity for you to try something new.
