Joint Carers Strategy

Joint Carers Strategy

This week is an ideal time to ensure your staff are aware of the Joint Carers Strategy 2023-2028.

This strategy, which covers both Nottingham City and Nottinghamshire County, was developed in collaboration between both local authorities, Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care System (ICS) and the NHS.

The strategy sets out how key agencies will work together to improve the health and wellbeing of carers.
