1 in 9 people combines work with caring for a loved
one. Many of them don't know where to
turn for help. As a Workplace Champion,
you are the vital link between Carers Wales and your colleagues. You'll spread
the word about caring and raise awareness of Carers Wales in your
workplace. By promoting events and
campaigns you'll be able to signpost those looking for support to the service
and expert advice on offer. You can do
this by putting up posters in your staff room to advertise high profile
national awareness campaigns such as Carers Week and Carers Rights Day. You know your workplace and colleagues better
than we do so we'd love you to come up with ideas for events and activities
from a Carers Catch-up or bake sale to running an information stand. Let us know your ideas.
