About this session

Working caregivers are the invisible workforce inside your workforce — and most of them are running on empty. Built specifically for the "Building a Caregiver-Friendly Workplace" context, this session stays concrete and respects your team's time.

Built for people who are already doing the hard bit.

What your people take away

  • Access the Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA) structures and when to set them up
  • Navigate the practical scripts for raising caring responsibilities with a line manager
  • Apply the Care Act 2014 caregiver's assessment — a statutory right most caregivers don't use
  • Ask the Carer's Allowance eligibility rules and how to apply in under an hour
  • Build the three questions to ask on any care-home tour that cut through the marketing
