Carers Rights Day 2024

Carers Support Centre invites carers and professionals supporting carers across Bristol and South Gloucestershire to join us to mark Carers Rights Day 2024.

The date for your diary is Wednesday 20 November and we’ll be at BAWA Health and Leisure, 589 Southmead Rd, Bristol, BS34 7RG between 9.30 am and 3.30 pm. 

As part of the day, we will hear from our CEO, Carl, our Policy Engagement team and carer reps. We are hoping to be joined by the local HealthWatch team and we’ll have workshops from representatives of Bristol and South Gloucestershire Councils, as well as a session on carers’ rights from our team. 

We’ll also be offering opportunities to visit information stalls provided by organisations providing help and advice for local carers, as well as a networking light lunch. 

In the afternoon there will be the chance to join in with one of our famous Walk and Talks or a creative session with our friends at Invisible Army on their Carers Strike Art Project – if you were to strike, what would be written on your placard? 

All the places at our last event, Caring Matters, were taken up well in advance of the event, so you are advised to book your place at our Carers Rights Day event as soon as possible.
