Hundreds of unpaid carers in Glasgow have been helped to draw up emergency plans in case they get ill and are unable to look after their loved ones.

Glasgow City Council, as part of the city's Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP), is creating around 200 new posts to cover vital home care, residential care and day care responsibilities.

We are celebrating Carers Week from the 8 to 14 June 2020.  This week is dedicated to people across the country who provide support to friends, family and neighbours who couldn’t manage otherwise.

On behalf of a national partnership, the Health Improvement Team within Sandyford Sexual Health Services commissioned and led the development of the new national Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood (RSHP) online teaching and learning resource.

Around eighty carers from across Glasgow came to the City Chambers on 3 April for the Glasgow City Health and Social Care Partnership's event to launch the Carers (Scotland) Act 2016 which takes effect from 1 April 2018.
