Carers UK would like to thank Bank of England for raising over £71,600 during our two year partnership.

Helen Walker, Chief Executive of Carers UK said:

“Over the past two years, Bank of England employees have dedicated their time, skills and knowledge to fundraising and volunteering activities raising over £71,600 in support of Carers UK.

“This fantastic amount will help Carers UK continue to provide vital support to unpaid carers, such as our through our helpline, the only national helpline for unpaid carers.

“It also takes us one step closer to fulfilling our vision of a society that recognises, values, and supports unpaid carers.

“The commitment shown by employees to one of the Bank’s charities of the year 2021/23, has been remarkable. Thank you so much to everyone at the Bank of England for an incredible two years!”

Carers UK provides information, advice and vital support to thousands of unpaid carers. The money raised by Bank of England employees has contributed to funding our work, such as our Helpline which in 2022 answered over 33,200 carer-related enquiries on topics such as benefits and financial support, what rights carers have in the workplace, the carers' assessments process and how to get support in a caring role.
