The Carers Action Plan

 The Carers Action Plan is a commitment to recognise and support carers better. It is a plan to enable all services to work together to meet the needs of carers.

The action plan is for unpaid, or informal, carers. These are carers who are aged 18 years and over who provide care for people who are 16 years and over, * and are not paid by health and social care services, or the person they are supporting, for their caring role.

How to connect with support, if you are an unpaid carer, can also be found on the page: Services and Support for Carers.
