Together, we’re making life better for every unpaid carer in the UK.
Carers Trust is a major charity for, with and about carers. We work to improve support, services and recognition for anyone living with the challenges of caring, unpaid, for a family member or friend who is ill, frail, disabled or has mental health or addiction problems. Our vision is that unpaid carers count and can access the help they need to live their lives.
Making a difference for unpaid carers

We rely on the generosity of the general public to donate and support carers in desperate need of help across the UK. Donate to Carers Trust and we can change the lives of unpaid carers for the better.
