Carers Week is an annual campaign to raise awareness of caring, highlight the challenges unpaid carers face and recognise the contribution they make to their families and communities.
In Wrexham, we are proud to mark Carers Week 2025 by hosting a special event to support and celebrate unpaid carers in our communities. The event will also mark Ageing without Limits Day to promote positive, healthy ageing in Wrexham.
The event will be held on Wednesday, June 11 from 10am–2pm, in the Wellbeing Hub Wrexham.
Organisations attending include; NEWCIS, Direct Payments, Continence Team, Warm Wales, Stroke Prevention Team, Fall prevention and Bone Health, Advocacy Support, Safe Spaces, Dementia Support, Occupational Therapy, Adferiad, Welfare Rights and many more.
Cllr John Pritchard, Lead Member for Adult Social Care said, “We encourage everyone to attend the drop in event, designed to offer essential information, practical support and an opportunity to connect with others in similar situations. Ageing well isn’t just about living longer, it’s about living better, with dignity, meaningful connections and the right support.”
The event is free to attend and open to all members of the public. Whether you are an unpaid carer, an older resident or simply want to learn more about local support networks, you’ll be warmly welcomed.
NEWCIS will also be holding drop in information sessions during Carers Week in the following locations:
Monday, June 9, 1–3pm , Cefn Mawr Library
Tuesday, June 10, 10am–1pm, Hwb Yr Orsedd, Rossett
