Carers Week 2026 - Building Carer Friendly Communities

This Carers Week, we’re celebrating the unpaid carers who do so much every day – and shining a light on how we can build communities where carers feel seen, valued and supported.

Across Cheshire East, thousands of people provide unpaid care to a family member or friend who has a long term illness, disability, or age related need.

Many don’t even recognise themselves as carers – yet their contribution is vital to our communities and services.

Did you know?
In Cheshire East, around 1 in 10 people provide unpaid care, reflecting national trends from the 2021 Census on unpaid carers. [https://orlo.uk/MR0Fk]

Join us during Carers Week
We can help make everyday life a little easier for carers, from access to information and wellbeing support to spaces where carers feel understood and welcome.
Come along, meet local organisations, access advice and support, or simply take some time out in a welcoming space.

Dates and locations:
📍 Tuesday 9th June – Salinae Day Centre, Middlewich CW10 9DG
📍 Thursday 11th June – Macclesfield Town Hall (Silk Room), Macclesfield SK10 1EA
⏰ 10.30am – 2.30pm

Free tea, coffee, and refreshments will be available at both events.

By working together - communities, health services, voluntary organisations, and neighbours , we can all play a role in building truly Carer Friendly Communities.
