Support for carers in Harrow and beyond is vital. This is why our general election campaign focussed so much on supporting carers and our elected MPs hit the ground running promoting causes for carers from the kick off of this Parliament.

But today isn't about us, it is about carers and making sure they know their rights and are supported throughout their care giving duties.

We have taken this from Carers UK

1. Right to flexible working

2. Right to as your GP to identify you as a carer

3. Right to request a free flu jab

4. Protection from discrimination or harassment 

5. Requesting a carer's assessment 

6. Being consulted when the person you care for is discharged from hospital 

Carers give so much to our community and it is right we support them today and everyday.
