About
Across the UK today 6.5 million people are carers, supporting a loved one who is older, disabled or seriously ill. Our loved ones are living longer with illness or disability, and more and more of us are looking after them. Whether round-the-clock or for a few hours a week, in our own home or for someone at the other end of a motorway caring can have a huge effect on us, our lives and our plans. Caring is such an important part of life. It's simply part of being human. Carers are holding families together, enabling loved ones to get the most out of life, making an enormous contribution to society and saving the economy billions of pounds. Yet many of us are stretched to the limit juggling care with work and family life, or even struggling with poor health ourselves. We often find it difficult to make ends meet if were unable to work or if we've reduced our working hours to care. Every day 6,000 people become carers. Many dont know how or where to get help. It can be frightening and very lonely. For some it's sudden: someone you love is taken ill or has an accident, your child is born with a disability. For others, caring creeps up unnoticed: your parents cant manage on their own any longer, your partner's health gets gradually worse. Looking after someone can be tough, but youre not on your own. Carers UK is here to listen, to give you expert information and advice that's tailored to your situation, to champion your rights and support you in finding new ways to manage at home, at work, or wherever you are. Were here to make life better for carers. We give expert advice, information and support. We connect carers so no-one has to care alone. We campaign together for lasting change. We innovate to find new ways to reach and support carers.
