Events and training for unpaid carers across the Vale of Glamorgan


Carers' Week 2026 (8-14 June 2026)

If you care, unpaid, for a friend or family member, who is a person with a disability, has physical or mental ill health or a person with a substance use disorder, you are an unpaid carer.

 

Carers’ Week, taking place from 8-14 June 2026, is a UK-wide awareness campaign looking to raise awareness of caring, highlight the challenges carers face and recognise the contribution they make to families and communities.  It also helps people who don't think of themselves as having caring responsibilities to identify as carers and access much-needed support.

 

The theme for Carers' Week 2026 is Building Carer Friendly Communities. This will highlight the impact carer friendly communities can have in making a real and lasting difference to the lives of carers everywhere.
