Action for Carers (Surrey)

Who we are

Action for Carers helps carers of all ages, by providing respite through groups and activities and giving practical and emotional support and assistance.  Our aim is to enable carers to have a voice and realise a life outside caring.

A carer is anyone, including children,  who looks after a family member, partner or friend who needs help because of their illness,  disability, a mental health problem or an addiction and cannot cope without their support.

We are proud to make a difference to the children and adults that we support.

Our culture and values

Our values are Focus, Inclusion, Respect and Excellence.  By keeping to our values, we are able to provide an innovative, high quality and compassionate service to carers in every community in Surrey, making a real difference to their wellbeing.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

We offer our staff a friendly, supportive, flexible workplace and are committed to welcoming applicants from a wide range of backgrounds as well as supporting staff who have their own caring responsibilities. To this end, we offer staff a weeks paid carers leave.
