We help to make life better for carers.

Story

Through working for Carers UK and in my own family I've seen the impact caring for an older or disabled loved one can have on carers' lives.

Carers UK provides vital advice, information and support to carers - from older people isolated by caring for a partner with dementia, parents caring round the clock for a disabled child or couples at risk of losing everything after a stroke or diagnosis of cancer.

All your donations will go to helping carers access financial support to prevent caring pushing them into debt, finding help at home which enables them combine work and caring or to take a break, or giving them the chance to speak about the pressures of caring to someone who understands. 

Thank you!
