Carers Week

Carers Week 2025 will be taking place on Monday 9 to Sunday 15 June.

The theme for this year, Caring About Equality, highlights the inequalities faced by unpaid Carers and the steps needed to create a fairer society. Far too often, Carers of all ages miss out on opportunities in their education, careers, or personal lives, just because of their caring role.

Get involved in Carers Week 2025 and join the call for an equal society, where Carers are truly valued, recognised and supported. Whether you participate online, or take part in activities at SCC, your involvement will help to make a difference.

During Carers Week, in-person and online events will be taking place right across the country; offering Carers the opportunity to find out helpful information, connect with local support, and take time out from their caring role. Carers Week also supports Carers, community members, politicians, employers and professionals across education, health, and social care, to back the call for greater equality for Carers.

Each day of Carers Week will focus on a specific theme, offering the chance to focus on the different ways in which inequality can affect Carers’ lives:
