Each year, Carers UK promotes Carers Rights Day where hundreds of organisations and thousands of individuals raise awareness of caring, helping to identify carers and signposting them to information, advice and support.

This year, Carers Rights Day was on
Thursday 20th November 2025 with the theme 'Know your rights, use your rights'.
The 2025 celebration also marked the 60th anniversary of Carers Rights Day by Carers UK!

At Carers Link Lancashire we celebrated at our Accrington shop and café by inviting carers from across East Lancashire to join us for a celebration event. Entertainment was provided from local choir The Hyndburn Singers, Local organisations set up stands to provide free information and advice to carers, and we all enjoyed a tasty buffet prepared by our café team.
