Dundee Carers Centre events starting 21 Sept 2026 with West End Library Drop-in and Strathmartine Connecting Carers Café details.

These CCCs are supporting 55 children with disabilities with education and therapy, and space to play, learn & socialise.

Their #UnpaidCarers, mostly mothers, also get much-needed respite which ultimately benefits children too & creates a positive difference for the whole family.

If I couldn't have worked from home for a large part of my working week, I would have had to give up my job a lot sooner

📢 Another #AdvocacyWin in #Karnataka, India!

The Government of Karnataka has taken an important step towards integrating support for #UnpaidCarers into an existing government livelihoods programme. 💜🧡

Here’s what’s changed 👇🏽

We're exhibiting at the #WLGA26 conference to make sure local authorities are considering #unpaidcarers as part of their future planning.

And I'm one of them. Yes, I know I was very lucky to be able to tie it in with voluntary redundancy/early retirement, but the biggest reason for going was it was impossible to keep working & caring, when the local authority only give you a care package of 13 hours a week.

#UnpaidCarers: Emily Holzhausen, at @carers-uk.bsky.social, said: “These figures represent real people who have had to make difficult decisions about their careers, their financial security and their futures due to the pressures of balancing work and care.”

10/10

A refund identified after its recipient dies may close a case. It does not deliver timely justice.

DWP pursued these debts without comparable delay. It must not make carers wait decades for correction.

No carer should have to outlive the queue for justice.

Have you considered leaving a gift in your Will to support #UnpaidCarers?

It's #RememberACharityWeek & we'd like to share how a gift in your Will can help us continue doing what we do.

For Thamarai Selvi, from India, receiving support through our #CarersProject has made a lasting difference.

Across #SouthAsia, we've been working to help #UnpaidCarers access government entitlements & in just 2025 they've accessed the equivalent of more than £4M.

In India, our #advocacy has led to the first-ever #CarersAllowance in Karnataka & we are seeing a largennumber of carers access this support 💜🧡


Photo of a woman working on her sewing machine, overlaid with the text: “£4,072,736 worth of government support was accessed by carers and family members” and “43,600 carers are now claiming the newly introduced Carers Allowance in India”.

The only thing that could have made this worse would have been if they'd handed them out during #carersweek. Most #unpaidcarers don't even qualify for #carersallowance, but sure they'll be equally happy with tea bags and biscuits.
FFS. 🙈
