It is vital the voices of carers are heard and changes made, so people looking after someone are better supported. The State of Caring survey gives you a chance to add your voice to those of thousands of other carers. See how you can speak out - carersmatternorfolk.org.uk/state-of-carin… Carers UK

Working, parenting… caring. Many of us supporting another adult are not ‘just’ carers. We are here to help you with your caring role. Meaning you are better able to cope with that, and everything else in life. youtu.be/AGdNJW1K3Wc #UnpaidCarers #Caring #Carers Norfolk and Waveney Integrated Care System (ICS)

How can someone get the support they need if they don’t even realise they are a carer? If you know someone who is caring for someone make sure they know we are here to help them. You could be helping them get essential support they didn’t know existed.
