The charity works to improve support, services, and recognition for carers - for anyone living with the challenges of caring, unpaid, for a family member or friends who is ill, frail, disabled or has mental health or addiction problems.
Carers Trust partner with their network of local carer organisations to provide funding and support, deliver innovative and evidence-based programmes, and raise awareness and influence policy. Carers Trust is positioned centrally to support local carer organisations delivering localised action, whilst also influencing the environment for unpaid carers UK-wide.
The vision at Carers Trust is that unpaid carers are heard, valued and have access to the support, advice and resources they need to live a fulfilling life alongside caring. For more information, visit the Carers Trust website (opens in new tab).
