Dani Leslie Chief Officer at Eden Carers reveals the importance of carers week Carers Week has begun to help all those who care for loved ones. Running until June 13 the annual campaign seeks to raise awareness for caring, highlighting the challenges unpaid carers face and recognising the contribution they make to families and communities throughout the UK. This year’s theme is to ‘Make Caring Visible and Valued.’ Dani Leslie, Chief Officer at Eden Carers, said: “Every year we urge the people we support to write a Carers’ Emergency Plan. That’s all the information that would be needed if the carer becomes acutely ill / has an accident or has to go into hospital at short notice.
