The annual Carers Week carers survey is now being carried out. The purpose of the survey is to update our knowledge, in advance of Carers Week (13-19 June), about carers experiences of juggling work and care, what support carers receive, how they view that support, and what changes might make a difference to their quality of life.

We have designed the survey so that it should only take a few minutes to complete; it is available online at: http://www.carersuk.org/Newsandcampaigns/CarersWeek/2005survey

Copies can also be ordered from this office (maximum 250). We would be very grateful if you could publicise and circulate the survey to carers you are in contact with, and also to other organisations and groups that support carers.

Many thanks for your assistance; please don't hesitate to contact me if you want any further information about the survey, or any aspect of Carers Week.
