Carers Rights Day 2026

Carers Rights Day is on Thursday 19 November 2026 – and the theme for this year is "Someone you know is a carer – but do they know it yet?".

Our focus for this year will be recognising carers in the workplace by sharing helpful resources for carers in employment and professionals who may employ carers.
