Carers Trust South East Wales

We recognise that caring is an important issue that affects our staff, volunteers and clients. We have been supporting unpaid carers in South East Wales for over 30 years.

Our vision is that carers and people with care needs across South East Wales have access to the support that matters to them.

We commit to:

• Listen to carers and shape our services around what carers tell us matters to them
• Provide high quality services for carers across South East Wales
• Raise awareness of carers, the challenges they face and the support available to them
• Work with a wide range of partners to make our communities more carer friendly
