#ThankYouForCaring

“We are excited to coordinate Carers Week 2026. The theme of this year is 'Thank you for Caring'. Our objective is to recognise and celebrate the important work done by family carers across the country, to show them appreciation and to encourage wider society to recognise and celebrate the family carers in their families and communities. Carers Week 2026 will run from the 8th to the 14th June 2026. Together with our partner organisations we will endevour to make this an inclusive event for all family carers with online and in person events.  Your care, commitment and compassion are seen and truly valued." #ThankYouForCaring

Liam O'Sullivan, (CEO, Care Alliance Ireland)

Our Carers

What our Carers say

“Made me realise how much support is out there for carer's and I'm not alone”

“I look forward to carers week. Every year it’s my week”

“Found it all very helpful and was lovely to see all the stories and recognition for carers”

“Can be tough caring for someone full time, but this week was a bit easier I thought”

“It was lovely to see Family Carers get together for events. It's time like this valuable resources are shared & friendships are forged. It feels good to receive instead of always giving!!”
