Carers Week is a yearly campaign to raise awareness of unpaid carers, recognise their vital contributions, and highlight the challenges they face. It also helps people identify as carers and find support.
Driven by individuals and organisations across the UK, the campaign includes events, activities, and advocacy.
The 2025 theme, ‘Caring About Equality’, focuses on the inequalities carers face—such as poverty, isolation, and missed opportunities in education, work, and life. Join the movement to build a more equal society where all carers are valued and supported.
