Carers Rights Day 2024
Carers Rights Day is on Thursday 21 November 2024.
Every day, 12,000 people become unpaid carers for a partner, family member or a friend – many of whom don’t see themselves as carers, often unaware of their legal rights and what they’re entitled to in terms of support and benefits. This year’s theme is about helping carers recognise and understand their rights, and to access support.
We’ll be at the Carers Northumberland Carers Rights Day information event on Thursday 21 November, 2pm to 4.30pm, at Morpeth Town Hall. Come along to find out more about your rights as a carer and how to get support for you or the person you care for.
If you would like to tell us about your experience of health or social care services as a carer or would like information about local services and support please get in touch.
