This year's theme for Carers Rights Day is 'Know your rights as an unpaid carer'. Carers Rights Day is a national campaign that brings organisations together to help unpaid carers know their rights and find out how to get the support they are entitled to.

Here at tide, this is something we strongly believe in.  With carers, we have developed the Carers Development Programme ensuring carers have all the tools to make sure they get everything they are entitled to as a carer.

It is your human right, as laid out in the Equality Act,

Carers have the right not to be discriminated against as a result of their caring role and “association” with a disabled person.

When you join tide we give a platform to your voice and ultimately make you as a carer feel empowered.
