This year’s Carers Week aims to raise public awareness of caring, help people realise they are carers, and make carers aware of the support available.

Action for Carers has information on all their free events for carers, and events will include: drumming workshops, picnics in parks, a legal session on wills and lasting power of attorney as well as mindfulness and yoga.
