Share the Care Week in March

Share the Care Week in March to raise awareness of the needs of families of disabled children - part of the BIG Breaks campaign

Verity Hitchings, Shared Care Network, writes –

 

Share the Care Week, Shared Care Network’s annual awareness week will take place from 7-14 March 2010. It aims to raise awareness of the needs of families of disabled children and to recruit short break carers for disabled nationwide. These carers are ordinary people who provide regular care to a disabled child while giving their family a regular break from the demands of caring.

 

It is part of Shared Care Networks BIG Breaks campaign which aims to double the number of families receiving a short break to 20,000 by 2010.
