During the COVID-19 pandemic, Carers Trust has developed a suite of resources to support unpaid carers and pharmacy teams in order to improve access to essential medicine.
Figures released for Carers Week show that 400,000 additional people in Scotland are caring for older, disabled or seriously ill relatives or friends since the COVID-19 pandemic.
Carers are some of the most important and vital members of our society, and this Carers Week is working to Make Caring Visible.
Caring comes in many different forms and each experience is unique. During Carers Week 2019 (10 – 16 June), the theme will focus on ensuring carers can get connected in their local communities.
