Caring for someone. Working to make ends meet. Then a letter arrives saying you owe thousands.

📞 0808 808 7777
• Citizens Advice – free, independent help with benefits, debt and challenging decisions

You don’t have to face this alone. Get advice early — it can make a real difference.

29% of unpaid carers in London live in poverty.

That’s almost 3 in every 10 unpaid carers.

And the poverty rate for unpaid carers is higher than the 21% rate for London’s population as a whole.

Behind these numbers are people giving their time, income, health and opportunities to care for someone they love.

Many carers are cutting back on essentials, struggling with financial pressure and finding it difficult to access the support they are entitled to.

At CarersMind, we believe carers deserve more than a thank you.

They deserve to be heard, supported and valued.

This is why we are working to create safe spaces where carers can connect, talk openly, learn about available support and know that they are not alone.

You care for others. We care for you. 💙

Social care reform is back in the national conversation.

Recent announcements have renewed discussions about improving the future of social care. While policies and funding are important, we believe one thing must remain at the heart of every reform: the wellbeing of carers.

A Question Worth Asking…

If caring for another human being requires patience, compassion, communication, safeguarding knowledge, medication awareness, moving and handling skills, emotional resilience, and the ability to make critical decisions…

Why is caring still one of the lowest-paid professions?

Every day, carers help people live with dignity, independence and hope.

Without carers, hospitals would struggle, families would be overwhelmed, and many vulnerable people would have nowhere to turn.

Maybe it’s time we stopped measuring the value of care by the wage attached to it.

Care isn’t low-skilled. Care is essential.

💬 What do you think?
Do carers receive the recognition and pay they deserve? We’d love to hear your thoughts.

Summer is here… but don’t forget to look after yourself too.

If you’re an unpaid carer, it’s easy to put everyone else’s needs before your own. But taking care of yourself isn’t selfish—it’s essential.

This summer, try to:
💜 Stay hydrated
🌿 Take short breaks when you can
😴 Prioritise rest
🚶 Get outside for some fresh air
🤝 Reach out for support when you need it
❤️ Remember that your wellbeing matters too

A healthier, happier carer is better able to provide the care their loved ones deserve.

At CarersMind, we’re here to remind every carer that you matter too.

💬 Which self-care tip are you going to focus on this summer? Let us know in the comments—we’d love to hear from you.
