Dear carers, we really appreciate you!

Today is the start of Glad to Care Awareness Week. However, I have a feeling this year is more important than ever.
Coronavirus has left many carers with little or no support. I know this cannot have been easy and you deserve to be recognised for all your hard work.
Have you been a carer throughout the pandemic? Has your care changed? Let us know in the comments below!

We'd like to introduce you to the new annual event, #GladtoCare Awareness Week, which will be taking place from the 6th to 12th July 2020, celebrating the wonderful efforts of those working in the care industry.
Whether you work in the industry yourself, or you're looking for care for a family member, we invite you to register to take part in our week-long event, highlighting the incredible happenings within the industry and promoting the positives of care to all.

Thank you for sharing this with us. It is so important that we celebrate and recognise the hard work and dedication that carers, both paid and non-paid, do. They are a lifeline for many people and I think recent events have only highlighted this more. Thank you to all carers. Thank you.
I have had a lovely carer called Bev, help look after me for 9 years. She is my best friend.
In those 9 years I have had 3 care agencies, which have not worked out so well, but I now have another girl helping me, who is a dream...but she is off to uni in September. So I`ll be searching again!
I need care 24/7 and am lucky to have found these people.
Hello. I am so sorry to hear of you and your family`s problems.
Social services would be the people to ask for help. They`ll do a care assessment for your daughter and yourself.
