Improving services for unpaid carers in Solihull
Solihull Council is inviting people who care for a family member or friend in Solihull to join a new forum and help us to keep improving the lives of unpaid carers in the borough. As we reach the halfway point of the Council’s five-year Carers’ Strategy, it’s time to take stock and check if we are still focussing on the right priorities.
We are looking for at least 50 people with current experience of caring for a family member or friend to join the forum. We welcome all carers including young carers, working age carers, parent carers and older people caring for their husband, wife, partner or relative.
The forum will provide a space for carers to come together, discuss what matters important to them and share feedback on the care and support available to carers in Solihull. Through the forum carers will influence and design initiatives that make a difference.
To express interest in joining the forum and to share views about priorities for discussion at the forum, carers are being asked to complete this online survey.

Printed surveys are also available on request in Solihull libraries and our Community Advice Hubs. Anyone with questions about the carers’ forum can also contact Solihull Council’s Engagement Team: getinvolved@solihull.gov.uk
