Carers Network coffee and conversation - Access to care in the home
Our coffee and conversation chats will be themed throughout the year, beginning with access to care in the home.
You are warmly invited to join the Carers Network for a coffee and conversation session where carers can come together to discuss and share experiences around accessing care in the home.
This will be an informal and supportive space to connect with others, exchange insights, and highlight both challenges and good practice.
Your experiences and perspectives are valued, and we hope this session will help inform future support and improvements.
According to CarersUK, a carer is someone who is responsible for the care and support of relatives or friends who are older, disabled or seriously ill and who are unable to care for themselves.
A 2023 poll by The Carers Trust showed nearly three quarters of people (73 per cent) who currently provide unpaid care, or have provided care in the past, have never identified as or called themselves a carer.
