title: 'Talking through what would happen with the emergency card worker made me plan and think about such things as where I store his medication. I felt I'd planned as much as possible after speaking with her. This gave me such peace of mind' Karen, a scheme user.
abstract: Who is a carer? A carer is someone who, in an unpaid capacity, provides care or support to another person. Many people do not class themselves as carers: they are mums and dads, husbands, wives, partners, brothers, sisters, friends and neighbours. Carers come from all walks of life, ages, ethnicities and backgrounds. Throughout our lives most of us will either be a carer or be cared for.
