**Please note: this is a voluntary position and not paid employment**

**Join us as a volunteer helping to assess our Carer Friendly Tick Award**

The Carer Friendly Tick Award is an accreditation, comprising of four key areas: Communities, Education, Employers and Health. The award is assessed by carers and intended to be simple to understand and implement. It takes only a few steps but makes a real difference for carers. It is designed to help those who are unsure of how to identify and support carers in your setting or, for those already supporting carers, a way to recognise your great work.

**About Caring Together**

Three in five of us will become a carer at some point in our life. Caring Together is an ambitious regional charity that provides emotional and practical support, advice and guidance to carers of all ages and their families, as well as opportunities to take a break from their caring role.

**Our people**

We employ around 150 people with approximately 50% of those delivering homecare in local communities. We are supported by a growing number of volunteers who contribute their time to our work.
