The Carer Aware Conference 18 July 2024
The Carer Aware Conference brought together 4 years of the Carer Aware project, looking at lessons learned and drawing good practice at a strategic and operational level, from Wales and beyond into one, convenient place. The event looked at how professionals across the health and social care sectors are currently working with unpaid carers to alleviate the strain on services and help pivot the care people receive away from the most expensive parts of our H&SC services. It also explored how a more carer aware workforce can more easily identify and support unpaid carers, meet the Welsh Government’s Strategy for Unpaid Carers and fulfil the duties and obligations outlined in the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014.
