For #CarersRightsDay we've collaborated on a new report with @carersscotland.bsky.social, which estimates the value of #unpaidcare in Scotland is worth £15.9 billion.
Without unpaid carers our health and #socialcare systems would collapse.

Moving in circles: supporting carers navigating the care system
A national care strategy must put unpaid carers at its centre, supporting their choice to care or not through well-funded services, and valuing their skills to improve care quality.

#CarerRightsDay By end of the week I would have done >50 hours #UnpaidCare enabled by annual leave from work. This involves direct care; taking son to medical appointments/activities away from home; completing paper/admin/audits & communicating with/navigating services. Nonstop. I feel like a robot!
Today is #CarersRightsDay – our #WomanoftheNorth report released this year shows that northern women contribute £10bn of unpaid care to the UK economy each year. This is £2bn a year more than if they provided the national average of unpaid care.

Most elderly caregivers are 49, give 24 hours/week, and do it for 4.5 years—often unpaid. That adds up to nearly $1 trillion in invisible labor. You’re not alone—and what you’re doing matters.
