Health, Social Care & Education Professionals’ Experience of Identifying and Supporting Unpaid Carers

We are gathering feedback from health, social care and education professionals to help us better understand how professionals identify and support unpaid carers, and how we can strengthen the partnership between your service and Quarriers Carer Support Service.

Your insight is essential in helping us strengthen referral pathways, improve collaboration, and ensure adult and young unpaid carers receive the right support at the right time.

Please share your feedback by 5pm on Wednesday 4 March 2026.

If you would like to speak directly with the HSCM Unpaid Carer Team, arrange awareness training or invite the team to a meeting, please contact us at: unpaidcarers@moray.gov.uk
