Carers Week is a major national awareness raising event which takes place each June to highlight:

• Why supporting carers is crucial
• How carers miss out on things we all take for granted
• What needs to be changes

The following simple Employers' Toolkit has been produced by Employers for Carers to help you:

• Highlight the contribution made by carers in your workplace
• Reach out to 'hidden carers' who might not realise that they are caring
• Let all carers know about the support and services that they can access
