As you enjoy the Bank Holiday today, take a moment to think of all the unpaid carers who care for others every day, with little chance for a break or time off to do things for themselves.

Thinking of all young carers returning to school this week. Please let a teacher or welfare team know you have caring responsibilities so they can offer support.

Many carers tell us that they feel increasingly isolated due to day to day services moving online. Carers can easily become digitally excluded. Our partner Catbytes CIC provides digital inclusion workshops. See their website for details catbytes.community
