Buckinghamshire All-Age Carers Strategy 2025 to 2030

Closes 15 Dec 2024

To provide a system that best works for carers, by joining up services and identifying carers at the earliest stage

Our focus will be to: 

  • promote a carer-friendly system wide approach, helping different services, partners and businesses work together to support carers 
  • strengthen emergency planning and crisis support to join up support for carers 
  • ensure carers only need to tell their story once 
  • raise wider public awareness of the important role carers play in our communities 
  • work with partners across the whole system including schools and GP’s, to ensure carers of all ages are identified in the early stages of caring; promoting the benefits of supporting the whole family 
  • reach out to carers of all communities, from under-represented and vulnerable groups to ensure they are identified and supported in a culturally sensitive, personalised way 
  • explore the ‘No-Wrong-Door’ approach agreed by Association of London Directors of Children’s Services, Association of Directors of Adult Social Services and the Carers Trust 
  • where young people are known to multiple services, there will be a joint approach in providing support, to ensure their needs are met
