Using survey results and freedom of information findings, this report looks at the ability of carers in England to access breaks from their caring role.

Facts about carers 2019 is a Carers UK digest and analysis of all the major research and statistics about carers in the UK.

Each year Carers UK surveys thousands of carers to find out about the impact of caring on their lives and provide a snapshot of what it's like to be a carer.

Released for Carers Week 2019, Getting Carers Connected compares carers' exerience of loneliness and well-being compared with the rest of the population.  

Caring impacts gender inequality in the economy, in particular women’s economic empowerment, by affecting women’s employment and making them more likely to live in poverty whilst caring or in later life once their caring role has ended.
