Who Funds Us?

The Carers Social Group was started in 2020 without external funding and ran on the goodwill, collaboration and determination of carers.

Since then we have applied for and been awarded small grants from various sources. All grant monies are spent directly on the running of the group, so that we can reach and serve as many carers as possible. Our committee manages the day to day running of the group. We do not pay ourselves salaries or an hourly rate. We do pay a non-member administration worker a small hourly amount for limited support. We rely on carers donating their very precious time in order to keep going.
