Our message to @Keir_Starmer is clear. Government must reconsider its welfare plans and #ProtectCarersBenefits. Carers are facing an unprecedented cut to their incomes. Support our campaign. Sign our open letter today: go.carersuk.org/PM_letter?ut…

We’re incredibly proud to announce our latest campaign #ThisCountsAsCare On average 12,000 people a day become unpaid carers, we want to halve the time it takes them to recognise themselves as carers.

“If there was something I had to choose about never giving up, it would be this. It’s been a life-saver. I wonder if I would have reached 89 otherwise. I just wanted to give up really.” Jean - ‘An Ode to the Joy of Stepping Out with Carers! 👇 bit.ly/4bZ24Bd

This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek through the Carers Active project we’re encouraging #MomentsforMovement and Jackie’s story is a great example of the mental health boost she feels by finding time to be active alongside her caring role @Sport_England @mentalhealth – at Tottenham, London
#MentalHealthAwarenessWeek is almost over, but movement remains just as important as ever. Jackie tells us how squeezing in just an hour a week really helps her. Any activity is great and whatever works for you and those you care for is best. #MomentsforMovement @Sport_England
