What is Carer’s Week?

Carers Week is an annual campaign to raise awareness of caring and help people who don’t think of themselves as having caring responsibilities to identify as carers and access much-needed support.

The Involvement, Experience and Volunteering team, working with the Carers Connect Network, will be hosting this event to talk to directly with Carers, the voluntary and community sector and Notts Healthcare staff, around our theme for Carers Week – Improving Communications with Carers.

The Chief Executive of the Trust, Ifti Majid and the Chair Paul Devlin, will be joining us in the conversation, to develop the priorities for communication improvements we will be working on over the next 12 months.

Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust recognises and values the role unpaid carers provide every week though out the year, and during Carers Week 2023, we are keen to spread the word about the challenges carers face and how and what needs to be done to improve our communications with them.
