A One-Stop-Shop Guide for Older Carers in Wales

A guide for identifying, signposting, and supporting older carers in Wales. This guide aims to help you answer some of the big questions about getting help as a carer - what you're entitled to, who you should speak to, and what other support is available.

Your rights as a carer

From the right to receive information, advice and assistance, to having your views taken into consideration, unpaid carers have certain rights enshrined in Welsh law. We've produced this leaflet to help you understand your rights as an unpaid carer.

For the Moment – summary of findings from older carers

GP Resources

Developed for Carers Week 2021, these resources for GPs and those working within primary healthcare settings aim to identify older carers at key points of contact. Although these resources were developed specifically for carers week, they can be used at any time to help carers, particularly older carers, to identify themselves to primary care.
