Carers Northern Ireland (formerly the Carers National Association of Northern Ireland) helps carers speak with a stronger voice by offering support and information to anyone caring for a sick, disabled, elderly relative or friend. It is involved in the following activities.

  • Providing information and advice on all aspects of caring to both carers and professionals. Carers Northern Ireland handles thousands of enquiries via the CarersLine (number above.)
  • The network of offices, branches and individuals offers support to carers and provides vital feedback on local practices and policies towards carers.
  • Campaigning at all levels of national and local government and with service providers to ensure that action is taken to support carers.
  • Publishes Caring, a bi-monthly magazine for members which contains a mixture of news, information, campaign updates and features of general interest to carers.

PS - Health and Poverty

Perhaps the biggest cause of ill health in the world is poverty. Help to Make Poverty History. For example, why not lend some of your money to disadvantaged communities to enable them to trade their way out of poverty through schemes such as Shared Interest.

See also MAKEPOVERTYHISTORY North East for details and links to campaigns against poverty.
