How Carer Aware Are You? A podcast from the NES Unpaid Carers Programme
How Carer Aware Are You? A podcast from the NES Unpaid Carers Programme
Launching on Carers Rights Day - 20 November, this podcast is for anyone working in health, social care, or the third sector. It’s all about understanding unpaid carers as Equal Partners in Care.
Unpaid carers provide care without pay to someone who needs support - often family, friends, partners, or neighbours of the people we work with every day.
In the first episode, meet the NES team and hear why we’re passionate about helping carers know and realise their rights. We share practical advice to help you:
- identify unpaid carers in your everyday work
- include them in care planning and decision-making
- support them in accessing the help they need
Join us to see how carer awareness can transform your practice—and make a real difference.
