National Engagement Group for Carers to hold week of virtual discussions to inform Welsh Government’s approach to supporting unpaid carers

The National Engagement Group for Carers will be working alongside the Ministerial Advisory Group for Carers to help inform Welsh Government’s approach to supporting unpaid cares across Wales.

During the week beginning 19th October 2020 the Engagement Group will be holding a series of events to amplify the voices of unpaid carers and the professionals that work alongside them.

The events will give carers and professionals the opportunity to share how Covid-19 has impacted on them and what steps they think should be taken to make sure that carers receive the recognition they deserve and the support they need.

All sessions will be held on Zoom and early booking is strongly advised:
