About us 

We’re here to make life better for carers.

Across the UK today, 5.8 million people are unpaid carers, supporting a loved one who is older, disabled or seriously ill. Carers UK provides information, advice and support to those in unpaid caring roles. 

Carers UK is a driving force for positive change, committed to improving the lives of unpaid carers. We’ve been campaigning with carers for 60 years, transforming understanding and winning critical developments in carers’ rights.
