Iʼm raising £1,000 to For the NUCUF to register as a recognised union with the Central Arbitration Committee
Don't have time to donate right now?
Story
In June 2024 we petitioned the government on www.change.org/helpthecarers and petitioned Kier Starmer to halt ny legal proceedings between the Department for Work and Pensions and Carers who had been overpaid carers allowance.
why did we do this?
Over 140,000 people were facing prosecution by the DWP and the Crown Prosecution Service, insisting that those that had been overpaid were knowingly committing fraud. We didnt agree, and neither did the over 50,000 people who signed the petition, but we did it.
On the 14th October, Kier Starmer announced that the legal action would stop pending a review, and since then, we have become a union.
Currently we have over 70 members who are committed to making change happen for unpaid carers, with your support we have raised the capital to apply for recognition by the Central Arbitration Committee.
Can you help us with marketing the Union?
Every penny you donate goes back into the Union, we are a non profit and anyone who works for the NUCUF, does so voluntarily to help the 5.9m unpaid carers across the UK.
Can you chip in to help us?

2 days agoWE DID IT.. Thanks to the support and generosity of those who donated, we raised the application fee to apply to the Central Arbitration Committee for recognition of the union. But that's not all we need, getting the word out about us is difficult, without advertising the Union it will be hard to gain more members. We still need your donations to help with our marketing costs, can you help by spreading the word? Thank You
