Did you know that as an unpaid carer you may be able to access discounts, concessions and other helpful benefits through a Carer’s Card?
We’ve created a brand new Carer’s Cards page on our website to make it easy to explore the different options available.
While there isn’t currently a dedicated Essex Carer’s Card, there are several national schemes that can help you prove your caring role and, depending on the card, access savings on shopping, days out, travel and more. We’ve also included information about the Essex Emergency Carer’s Card, which can help ensure the person you care for is supported if an emergency means you’re suddenly unable to provide care.
Our new page explains the different cards available, who they’re for, what they cost and how to apply, all in one place. We’ve also included links to a helpful guide from Mobilise to help you decide which option is right for you.
Whether you’re looking for practical savings, a way to identify yourself as a carer, or peace of mind in an emergency, our new resource is a great place to start.
