ARE YOU
A CARER?
WHAT
WE DO
KEEP
IN TOUCH
Follow us @suttoncarers
A Carer is anyone who cares, unpaid, for a friend or family member who due to illness, disability, a mental health concern or an addiction cannot cope without their support.
Anyone could be a Carer – a 15-year-old girl looking after a parent with alcohol dependency, a 40-year-old man caring for his partner who has terminal cancer, or an 80-year-old woman looking after her husband who has Alzheimer’s disease.
-
There are around seven million Carers in the UK – that is one in ten people. This is rising.
-
Three in five people will be Carers at some point in their lives in the UK.
-
Out of the UK’s Carers, 42% of Carers are men and 58% are women.
-
The economic value of the contribution made by Carers in the UK is £132bn a year.
-
By 2030, the number of Carers will increase by 3.4 million (around 60%).
