The Cardiff and Vale Unpaid Carers Assembly is a direct response to the voice and views of our region’s Unpaid Carers and is designed to prioritise your attendance.
We have been able to secure funding from Cardiff Third Sector Council (C3SC) to contribute up to £80 for replacement caring support, if you need to arrange this to be able to attend the Assembly. If you would like to apply for this payment, there will be a short form to complete at the Assembly. Please bring along your bank details on the day.
You can book your space by completing the registration form at https://participate.cavrpb.org/embeds/projects/24563/survey-tools/28544

We are looking forward to welcoming you to the Assembly.
Please forward and share this information with any unpaid carers you know from Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan. We would love them to come along too.

Our Priorities
DECHRAU’N DDA
STARTING WELL
We want every child in Cardiff and Vale to have the opportunity to thrive. Our work focuses on children in vulnerable situations and the services that support them.
HENEIDDIO’N DDA
AGEING WELL
We know how hard it can be to find help when people need it the most. We want to make sure there is community support to help people stay as healthy as possible so they can carry on doing the things that matter most to them.

LIVING WELL
As a Partnership we have worked together with people with a learning disability, their families, carers and the third and independent sector to produce a clear direction for the planning and delivery of adult learning disability services across the region over the next five years.
