Fundraising for Carers Trust Wales

Support our vital work for carers in Wales through fundraising.

As a charity, we rely on the generosity of individuals and organisations to carry out our work. 

With your help, thousands of carers can be protected from facing a life of isolation by offering them the practical, financial and emotional support that will make their lives that little bit easier. 

Below are some of the ways you can support us through fundraising.

You can donate to us on our LocalGiving page, whether it is a one-off donation, a monthly one, or whether you wish to plan a fundraising event.

Loteri Cymru donation for support during the COVID-19 pandemic

As unpaid carers are facing unprecedented challenges and many charities are at risk of losing crucial income to support those in need, Loteri Cymru, which is operated by Sterling Lotteries, chose to support Carers Trust Wales with a £10k donation. This donation will offer much needed support for carers across Wales and it will help us to continue to work nationally to create a better landscape for carers of all ages, especially during these difficult times.

Fundraising events 

Every year, hundreds of people across Wales take part in events to raise money for Carers Trust. 

From feats such as running marathons, abseiling or skydiving to more relaxed events such as bake sales and coffee mornings – every event and donation helps carers in Wales.  

The latest event we are involved in is the ABP Newport Wales Marathon & 10K, which will take place on Sunday 25 October 2020.

Corporate support 

With three in five of us likely to become a carer at some point in our lives, chances are that a significant number of employees in any organisation are, or have been, a carer. If not, they almost certainly will know of someone who is or has been a carer. Support for carers is therefore something that resonates with all of us.  

There are many ways that your company can make a lasting impact to the work of Carers Trust Wales. Working in partnership with us can provide rewarding possibilities for both your company and employees.

Current Partnership with Jehu Group 

We are currently the charity partner of Jehu Group and working closely with the company’s staff to raise awareness of carers rights and how employees can access support tailored to their caring needs. Together we are working on an exciting series of fundraising events and challenges as well as community engagement events and campaigns.
