When can I identify myself as a carer?
Carers Oxfordshire is a service that launched in 2011 with the ambitious aim of identifying up to 45,000 of the county’s estimated 61,000 carers within three years. By identifying carers much earlier in their caring lives and ensuring they are in contact with preventive services, the service aims to reduce the likelihood of crises and carer breakdown.
