Carers Wales

When you’re caring, getting the right information at the right time can make all the difference.

Carers Wales is the leading national charity dedicated to making life better for unpaid carers. Carers are at the heart of their work, shaping their campaigns, helping get carers’ message across through the media and taking action to bring about change locally and nationally.

Carers Wales provide information and advice on a range of topics including:

  • benefits and financial support
  • your rights as a carer in the workplace
  • carers’ assessments and how to get support in your caring role
  • services available to carers and the people you care for
  • how to complain effectively and challenge decisions.

They also provide free online activities to support your wellbeing, help you take a break and connect with other carers.

If you have a question about caring or just need more support, the Carers Wales Helpline is available on 0808 808 7777 from Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm, or you can email advice@carersuk.org.
