You can offer financial support to Wirral Carers by sponsoring a project or activity that can help carers to be included into society or have an impact on their health and wellbeing. We are always looking for ways to identify ‘hidden carers’, these are carers who are most at risk as they do not recognise the impact looking after someone can have on their health, employment or social life.

You can always raise the awareness by talking about the important role this countries 7 million carers do. They save this Government over 54 billion pounds each year. There are over 37,000 carers here on the Wirral.
