PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
Carers Week 2023 (4 June 2023)

That this House supports Carers Week 2023, taking place from 5 to 11 June; notes this year’s theme of recognising and supporting carers in the community; emphasises that millions of unpaid carers provide care worth £445 million each day to their family, friends and neighbours who are disabled, ill or older and need support; highlights that unpaid carers have been under immense pressure over the past few years with the covid-19 pandemic and the cost of living crisis; and calls on the Government to ensure that carers get the practical and financial support they need to live a life beyond their caring responsibilities.
