Hampshire Carers Joint Strategy 2024-2029
This strategy was published on 26th February 2024 by Hampshire Carers Partnership after consultation between carers and several organisations that work with carers. It includes a revised Hampshire Carers Charter with principles for use by any organisation that supports carers.
It is available by clicking below.
It will soon be available in ‘easy read’. It will also be on Connect to Support Hampshire. An Action Plan is being developed to ensure ongoing work on the key aims. More information in coming months.
If any organisation that supports carers would like to adopt the Strategy or the Charter or become a member of Hampshire Carers Partnership please contact Carers Together on:
