Carer’s Week Events
Carers week is an annual campaign to raise awareness of caring, highlight the challenges unpaid carers face and recognise the contribution they make to families and communities throughout the UK.
Within Lincolnshire we have many people juggling work and personal unpaid caring responsibilities. This comes with huge pressures and stresses and the Lincolnshire Carers Project has been launched to support our staff who are also unpaid carers.
This carers week we would like to invite our staff to attend these online events which are being provided for unpaid carers across Lincolnshire by Carers First and Lincolnshire Recovery College.
If you would like any more information about these events, or the links to join them please email jo.rouston@nhs.net
