Local Assembly Member Paul Davies is once again showing his support for Carers Week 2017. Carers Week aims to raise awareness of caring, highlight the challenges carers face and recognise the enormous contribution carers make to families and communities throughout the UK. This year it will continue its focus on building Carer Friendly Communities – places where local people and services support carers to look after their loved ones well, while recognising that they are individuals with needs of their own.
Paul Davies said, “I’m honoured to once again be supporting Carers Week, recognising the very important contribution that carers make in Pembrokeshire and beyond. The theme this year is Carer Friendly Communities and I sincerely hope that communities across the County reach out to support carers where they can. We can all do more to better understand some of the challenges that carers face and I encourage everyone to consider ways that we can better support carers and show our appreciation for their hard work.”
