Carers Scotland is the voice of carers. Carers provide unpaid care by
looking after an ill, frail or disabled family member, friend or
partner.
Carers give so much to society yet as a consequence of caring, they
experience ill health, poverty and discrimination. Carers Scotland is an
organisation of carers fighting to end this
injustice. We will not stop until people recognise the true value of
carers’ contribution to society and carers get the practical, financial
and emotional support they need.
Carers Scotland is the Scottish national office of Carers UK and is the only carer-led organisation working for all carers.
