The theme for Carers Rights Day 2020 on Thursday 26 November is ‘Know Your Rights’ .
Carers need to know their rights wherever they are in their caring journey, whether in the workplace, in a healthcare setting, when interacting with professionals or at home.
This Carers Rights Day, Carers UK want to empower carers with information and support, so they can feel confident asking for what they need and know how to challenge things when their rights are not being met.
Sheffield Young Carers and Sheffield Carers Centre are working together to make a series of campaign videos to mark Carers Rights Day. They want carers to understand they are not alone and that every carer has rights which can help to make their lives easier and they’d love your help!
They want their campaign to include a wide range of carers from our diverse caring community in Sheffield, so are asking carers to make a short video and send it to them by Friday 6th November. Read how to do so here
