Join Us for Carers Rights Day

This year, Carers Rights Day is on Thursday 20 November and the theme is ‘Know Your Rights, Use Your Rights’, which aims to raise awareness and empower unpaid Carers with knowledge about their rights in employment, social care, and other support systems.

To mark the day, our team is hitting the road across Highland, spreading the word about the support and services available to unpaid Carers.

Come along to:
• Learn about your rights as a Carer
• Find out about the support and services available
• Access advice and guidance
• Connect with others on their caring journey
• Ask any questions about your caring role

At these events, we’ll be covering a Carers Rights presentation, sharing initial findings from our research project, and running a consultation on our new Service Delivery Model.

Attendees will also enjoy goody bags, refreshments, and cake!

All unpaid Carers are welcome, whether you’re new to caring or have been supporting someone for years.
