Belfast Trust is renewing our Carers Strategy. The Carers Strategy is our plan which sets out how carers are supported. Carers have been at the centre of this work and working through the Carers Network, we have shaped four priorities.
The new strategy will set out our plan for how we will support unpaid and family carers for the next 5 years. We are inviting carers, Trust staff and Community and Voluntary sector representatives to help shape this strategy.
We want to hear what matters to carers. Join us at one of the events in March to ‘Shape Caring Together in Belfast 2023 onwards’. In these drop-in sessions you can tell us what you like about carer supports and what we could do better.
