Carers UK is the leading national charity for unpaid carers. We support, advocate for, champion and connect carers across the UK, so that no one has to care alone. 

Every day 12,000 people become carers. Whether round-the-clock or for a few hours a week, in our own home or for someone at the other end of a motorway – caring can have a huge effect on us, our lives and our plans. Many don’t know how or where to get help. It can be frightening and very lonely. 

As a volunteer, we will help you to use your skills to help carers get the support and guidance they need. Along the way, you’ll develop new skills and find opportunities to make new connections. 

Whether you have only a few hours to spare or can make a longer commitment, there will be a valuable part for you to play in making life better for carers. We also have flexible and inclusive roles online and in the community. Visit our website for more details: https://www.carersuk.org/get-involved/volunteer-with-us/
