Carers Network is delighted to have been chosen by the new Lord Mayor of Westminster, Councillor Patricia McAllister to be one of her beneficiary charities of the year for 2023/2024.

An unpaid carer is someone who provides unpaid care and support to a family member or friend who has a disability, illness, mental health condition or who needs extra help as they grow older.

For some, taking on a caring role can be sudden; someone in their family has an accident or a child is born with a disability. For others, caring responsibilities can grow gradually over time; their parents cannot manage on their own any longer or a partners mental or physical health gradually worsens.

We know how passionate the Lord Mayor is about supporting unpaid carers in Westminster. Together we will be fundraising so that we can help improve the lives of even more local unpaid carers so they can lead healthy fulfilling lives, with a range of practical, personal and financial support, suited to their needs.

With your help, together we can make sure that no one cares alone!
