“It is important to Carers Forum, Northamptonshire, a small local organisation, to be affiliated to a national one such as Carers UK. They keep us updated on current carers’ issues as well as being our ear to Government.

The Annual Carers Summit give us the opportunity to talk directly to Government Ministers and at the same time provides very useful information.”
