If you're an employer in Medway, you can find advice, guidance and legal requirements for supporting employees with a caring role and responsibility.

We support carers in a variety of ways in Medway and we recognise the unpaid support they offer to the friends and loved ones they care for.

We value your investment in carers, supporting them to stay well, access resources and help when they may need it.

About the resources

To help you develop your understanding and support for your employees in a caring role, we have created a toolkit of resources, inlcuding:

  • employee law (ACAS)
  • government legislation around carers leave (2024)
  • carers UK .

There are also links to local forums for Medway, Young Carers and Carers First - our commissioned local service for supporting carers.

We have a Medway support for carers page, for further advice for local carers and more resources like respite care, accessible equipment or finance support.

We care, you care, they care.
