Carers Week ( 6 – 12 June ) is an annual event that raises awareness and celebrates the massive contribution that unpaid carers make to our communities by providing a wide range of help and support to relatives and friends.It also helps people who don’t think of themselves as having caring responsibilities to identify as carers and access much-needed support.
The Carers Week theme this year is ‘Make Caring Visible, Valued and Supported’. Sheffield Carers Centre has partnered with Sheffield City Trust to celebrate Carers Week and offer a series of free leisure taster sessions.
A Carers Wellbeing event is taking place at Ponds Forge on Thursday 9 June from 11am to 7pm providing information about the taster activities on the day and all of Sheffield Carer’s centre services.
