Carers Week 2024
06 June 2024
This year Carers Week takes place from Monday 10th June – Sunday 16th June.
It is an annual campaign which highlights the challenges faced by unpaid carers and recognises the enormous contribution they make to individuals and communities.
Carers Week also helps people who don't think of themselves as having caring responsibilities to identify as carers and access much-needed support.
If you would like to find out more about looking after someone in Herefordshire then please visit our carers webpage.
Find out about carer support organisations on the Talk Community Directory.
