Carers' Manifesto

The Scottish parliamentary election will take place later this year and the National Carer Organisations of Scotland have produced a Manifesto for Carers in Scotland. It outlines seven commitments for carers which they are asking all political parties to include in their own party manifestos. Check out the information set out on the Carers Scotland website which outlines these commitments and has a copy of the manifesto for your perusal.
