Carers Week 2025 – Caring About Equality

We’re excited to announce that Carers Week 2025 will take place from 9th to 15th June, with this year’s theme: Caring About Equality.

Carers Week is a UK-wide awareness campaign that recognises the vital contribution unpaid carers make to families and communities. This year, we’re shining a spotlight on the inequalities carers face – in health, employment, education, and financial wellbeing – and calling for a fairer society where carers are recognised, supported, and valued.

Throughout the week, we’ll be hosting a range of events and activities (details to be confirmed) to raise awareness and bring carers and communities together.

Each day will focus on a different theme:

  • Monday: Health and Social Care
  • Tuesday: Financial Wellbeing
  • Wednesday: Work and Employment
  • Thursday: Younger Carers
  • Friday: Older Carers
  • Saturday: Mental Health and Wellbeing
  • Sunday: Reflections on Carers Week

We invite everyone – carers, families, the workforce, employers, and the wider public – to get involved. Follow us on social media, share your stories, and help us spread the message using #CarersWeek2025 and #CaringAboutEquality.
