Introducing Carers Voice

Forward Carers has 8 years’ experience of using different approaches to engage and co-design services with Carers, that reflect the diversity of Birmingham Carers.   

Carers Voice is an initiative created by Forward Carers to provide a platform for Carers across the UK to share their voice locally and nationally and have it heard by health professionals, social care and other services. Many Carers often feel unheard and under pressure, therefore we believe that Carers should have more say and equal input around the services that affect them.
