Are you an unpaid carer?

You could be a carer and not know it!  

A carer is anyone who cares, unpaid, for a friend or family member who due to illness, disability, a mental health problem or an addiction cannot cope without their support. Caring for someone can take up a few hours each week, or a carer may be caring for 24 hours a day, seven days a week. 

We would like to understand how your caring responsibility impacts on your daily life, the challenges you face, which services, if any you have accessed, and anything else that you think we should know about, that affects your caring role. 

With this in mind, Coventry City Council is undertaking a survey of people who have caring responsibilities for another adult and would very much like to hear your views. Please take a few minutes to complete our online survey which will be running until Friday 12 May 2023. 

The information you provide will help us to have a better understanding of the wellbeing of carers and who is being cared for and may be used to improve services. 

For any other inquiries related to carers, you can drop us an email.
