Our vision
A better life for carers of all ages where they are recognised, valued and supported in their caring role and empowered to fulfil their own aspirations.
Our mission
- We will support carers’ emotional, physical and financial health and wellbeing, building their resilience and confidence.
- We will listen to and amplify carers’ voices, enabling them to have a strong and independent influence on policy and services.
- We will support carers to be free from inappropriate levels of care and able to live a life of their own.
- We will raise awareness of carers and the issues they face, leading to communities and organisations where carers feel recognised, welcome and supported.
Our values
- Co-producing– We will be led by carers’ needs involving them in service planning and development and encouraging other organisations to do the same.
- Learning – We will constantly review and refine our services, developing and sharing good practice.
- Collaborative and connected – We will be collaborative in our approach to supporting carers, working closely with partner organisations and communities to provide holistic, sustainable support.
