Developing a future cross-Government National Carers Strategy

Introduction – developing a future National Carers Strategy

The All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Carers is calling on the UK Government to develop a new cross-Government National Carers Strategy. 

The All Party Parliamentary Group has already received evidence from carers and organisations who represent them and is grateful for their time and input. 

The APPG now wants to undertake a more detailed piece of work to better understand what the objectives of a future Strategy should be.

The survey is open to current and former unpaid carers, as well as organisations who support them. This includes local and national carers organisations, other VCSE organisations, academics, employers, local government stakeholders, NHS England & social care providers.

The survey will remain open for 4 weeks for responses and close on 7 March 2024.
