Thursday 24th November
This year’s theme, for Carers Rights Day is Caring costs. Examples of the costs of caring are listed below–
It is important if you have recently become a carer or have been for many years understand their rights to access the support that is available to them as soon as they need it
We want to empower carers with information and support, so they feel confident to ask what they need and can challenge when their rights are not being met.
On Monday 21st November, Sunderland Council Adult Social Care Service and associated partners will be in the main concourse, B Floor, Sunderland Royal Hospital to provide information and offer assessments.
