Good to see unpaid carers receiving recognition!
The Carer’s Award
(PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS AWARD WILL BE JUDGED ON WRITTEN SUBMISSIONS ONLY)
The award will be given to an unpaid carer who in the opinion of the judges can demonstrate commitment and perseverance in the care they give. Six million people a year provide unpaid care to either a relative, friend or child who is ill, frail or disabled. This award seeks to acknowledge and celebrate the dedication that carers give to those they care for and the incredible contribution they make.
