How Carer Aware Are You?
A podcast by the Unpaid Carers Programme
Launched on Carers Rights Day – 20th November 2025, this podcast is for everyone working in health, social care, and the third sector. It’s about understanding how to work with Unpaid carers as Equal Partners in Care.
Unpaid carers are people who provide care without pay to someone who needs support—often family members, friends, partners, or neighbours of the individuals we work with every day.
Listen to our episodes and meet the PSD Scotland Unpaid Carers Programme team. Hear why we’re passionate about helping carers know and realise their rights. We’ll share practical advice to help you:
- Identify unpaid carers in your everyday work
- Include them in care planning and decision-making
- Support them in accessing the help they need
