Overview

Listening to Carers – Your Experience Matters

Consultation on an All-Age Carers Strategy

We understand that being an unpaid carer comes with unique challenges, and your experiences matter. By completing this short survey, you’ll be helping us:

  • Shape a new Carers Strategy based on what carers truly need.
  • Improve support services based on real-life experiences.
  • Raise awareness of the vital role carers have.
  • Influence policy and funding decisions 
  • Ensure your voice is heard 

Your insights will help us build a more supportive, responsive, and inclusive system for all carers. The survey is confidential, and every response helps drive meaningful change.

The survey should take approximately 5-10 minutes to complete.

If you would like to know more about the support which is available to help you in your caring role, please visit: Support for carers | Essex County Council
