What is a carer? A carer is someone of any age who provides unpaid support to a family member or a friend, who would not manage without their support. Caring for someone can take up a few hours each week, or a carer may be caring for 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Some carers live with, or near to, the person they are caring for, whereas others provide more remote support.
What is happening in Telford and Wrekin? A five year All Age Carers Strategy has been launched! The plan is dedicated to shaping the future of care provision within the community to enhance support for carers of all ages, ensuring that their contributions are recognised and that they receive the assistance they need to thrive.
We are excited to share with you our All Age Carers Strategy
