On August 27, we took a group of adult carers to the Edinburgh Fringe! 🎭 They enjoyed a meal at Edinburgh Street Food and saw Ruby Wax’s show, “Absolutely Famous,” even getting photos with her afterward. One carer said, “I had a wonderful time and it was great to chat with others.”

In 2025, your responses to the State of Caring survey helped us secure additional financial support for unpaid carers who care for more than one person. What should we campaign for next? Tell us by completing the State of Caring survey for 2026: www.surveymonkey.com/r/8GX7Z5T
Last year, what carers told us in State of Caring helped us to... deliver a new Carer Additional Person Payment, providing some additional financial support for carers who care for more than one person. Take part in the 2026 survey today!
