This autumn, warmth feels like a luxury.
But community can be a kind of warmth too — and that’s something we can share.
💬 Tell us: What’s one small thing that helps you feel cared for right now?

Oh yes, can go on about this at length.
My council will only fund things that make for a press opportunity, like hiring a bus to go around telling us about our rights.
Actually ask for our rights, ask for the support people actually need... silence.
If I hear the say "coproduction" one more time...

Hi Tracy,
We produced a report with Carers Trust last year detailing the reality of carers rights here if you want to read it.
You can imagine what’s in it.

We worked so hard during Covid to get carers flagged onto GP systems. It was an uphill battle then.
Even got a carer to talk to then vaccine minister as it got ridiculous. Often receptionists didn’t understand carers could be any age.
It’s something that needs addressing.
