The Care Workers Charity (CWC) supports the basic welfare of current, former and retired care workers through hardship grants, online information and advice, health and wellbeing support through a third party and campaigning to raise awareness of the issues facing those working in social care.There are nearly 2 million care workers in the UK, contributing to one of Britain’s largest workforces, and caring for some of the most vulnerable people in our society. Early starts, long hours, mentally draining work; it’s all part of the job, but add an injury, illness or other unforeseen circumstance and all too easily care workers and others in the sector can be pushed beyond their financial limits. The good people of the care sector make a massive contribution to people’s everyday lives. The Care Workers Charity provides a helping hand when they need it.  We believe no care worker should ever face financial hardship alone.
