Carer Programme

Our Carers’ Programme provides carers a period of rest away from their caring roles through days out. In the UK around 7 million people are unpaid carers for family members or friends who need help due to disabilities. We work to support carers and never underestimate how difficult life can be as a carer. Support for adult carers is important and we provide this support through the projects detailed below.

Round Two of our 2026 Holiday Grant Programme is now closed in order to process the applications we have received.

We will re-open for new applications on Tuesday, 5th May.

Please note that we are also unable to accept postal or emailed applications at this time.

Thank you for your understanding.

A little respite in a box!

3H adapted the way we supported carers through the lockdown by sending out respite hampers to carers throughout the country. It was so successful that we continue to proivde our hampers to carers who are registered with us so they can have a little respite at home.
