SURVEY NOW OPEN FOR PARENT CARERS TO SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES

Anna Sansom • Oct 19, 2021

Have you completed our national survey of parent carers?

If you care for a child with a disability or long-term illness, your input could help us develop better support for carers in crisis. The research is being led by the University of Exeter and the survey has been co-designed by carers. It includes questions about your caring role, your physical and mental health, and your relationships with friends and family. It also includes questions about self-harm and thoughts of suicide, but all your answers will be anonymous.


Parents, step-parents, foster parents, kinship carers, and legal guardians are all welcome, as long as you live in England and your child (or at least one of the children you care for) is under 18.
