About us
Who we are
Manchester Carers Forum exists both for carers, and because of, carers. We are carer established and carer led. In 1993 a group of carers in Manchester set up a forum to share their experiences and make their voices heard. They wanted to make sure that what carers do is valued and that carers receive the support they need to continue to care. In the years since, the team at Manchester Carers Forum has built on these founding principles.
We continue to be directed by carers to act on and develop our original vision and mission. Our vision is for every carer in Manchester to have access to the right support at the right time in the right place.
Our culture and values
We achieve this through our mission:
- Working with others to improve support for carers
- A reliable resource for carers to turn to for support
- Connecting carers with other carers
- Enabling carers to have a voice
And through our values:
- Committed to partnership working
- Open to all carers in Manchester
- Independent and innovative
- Inclusive
- Celebrating diversity
