Carers can often go unseen in our communities. They look after family, friends and neighbours who are older, disabled or seriously ill. For many, it’s a full-time job, without the salary. But while they’re busy supporting others, few notice they’re more at risk of feeling lonely and becoming isolated. That’s why we’ve teamed up with Carers UK – the UK’s leading charity for unpaid carers – for the next five years. Our goal? To help build meaningful connections that make life better for 1 million carers by the end of 2025.

Your fundraising will support Carers UK’s Helpline, the only national helpline for carers open 5 days a week. Just £500 can staff the Helpline for a day, enabling Carers UK to address loneliness and isolation by connecting an average of 103 carers, every day, to an essential lifeline of support, help and information.
