Carer Friendly is part of the charity TuVida

Newport City Council Adult Services and the IAA Hub

Newport City Council recognise that unpaid carers play an important role within our communities. We commit to ensuring that carers are recognised, valued, listened to and supported within our services. We promote carer issues within our workforce so that staff and volunteers are aware of the issues carers face and the support available to them locally. Many of our employees have a caring role outside of work and we provide an understanding community to support their work-life balance.

Commitments
