Hidden and
invisible?
Carers are invited to take part
in the 2009 Carers' Week Survey,
which
can be completed at
www.carersweeksurvey.org.uk
The survey will be seeking answers
to the following questions:
- Is the
contribution that carers make
recognised by society?
- Do carers
need access to better support
and services?
- Would
increased recognition by
professionals, and by others who
impact on carers day-to-day
lives, make a difference to
carers lives?
The survey will
bring to the fore the issues carers
say are the most important to them,
and will give carers the opportunity
to share their experience of caring;
the personal stories of the stresses
and strains; the ups and the downs.
The stories and experiences that
carers describe will together create
an overall picture and a set of
results, which will be at the centre
of Carers Week 2009. All information
provided by carers will be private
and confidential.
