Give carers a break! Join the carers' protest from home

Dear members,

Carers Trust is organising a Protest from Home for carers everywhere – and we want you to be a part of it!  

We know carers can find it difficult to take a break, so how can you take time out to protest for their rights? 

Carers Trust is bringing that protest to your own homes. It’s collecting photos taken by carers at home and projecting them onto screens in Parliament Square on Tuesday 22nd July, just as MPs and Lords go off on their summer break. It’s making the point that, unlike Parliamentarians, unpaid carers often can’t get a proper break and so we’re all calling on Government to make respite breaks for carers an accessible and a legal right.

So we are asking carers to take and share a photo while holding up a sign or placard that shows the one thing they’d like to do if they were given a proper break.

With thanks,

The Crossroads Care Surrey team.
