Thank you for all of you who were able to attend the co-production events and participating in the formal consultation. Your contribution to developing the strategy is very much appreciated, and we understand your time is valuable. Your input provided confidence that the voice of carers was heard in the development of the Suffolk All Age Carers’ Strategy.
We are really pleased to say that the strategy was signed off by the Family Carers Partnership Board and the Health and Wellbeing Board where it was launched on Thursday 17th November 2022.
To clarify the next stages:
- Easy Read version is in development by ACE Anglia and will be available soon.
- Initial meetings will be set up to start to co-produce the action plan with you.
- As the vision says, the strategy needs to lead to actions and ‘Improving the lives of carers and those they care for’.
If you would like to take part in the future development of the action plan or a specific workstream around one of the 5 priorities below, please complete our short questionnaire. One of the team will get back to you.
1. Early identification of carers
2. Improved information and advice
3. Young carers to have the same priority as adult carers
4. Systems and services that work for and support all carers
5. Improved health and wellbeing for carers
