🌟 Today is Carers Rights Day! 🌟
On Thursday 20th November, we’re joining thousands across the UK to celebrate and support the incredible unpaid carers who make a difference every single day.

This year’s theme is “Know your rights, use your rights” – because understanding what you’re entitled to can change everything. From flexible working and Carer’s Leave to getting a Carer’s Assessment and support from your GP, these rights exist to help you care without losing yourself.

📢 Whether you’re a carer, an employer, or a friend, let’s spread the word and make sure carers get the recognition and support they deserve.

Have Your Say on the Future of Health & Social Care in Angus.

Angus Integration Joint Board (IJB) is reviewing its Strategic Plan, this is something we are required to do every three years. The Strategic Plan sets out the broad aims and objectives that will guide decision making and the allocation of resources over the next ten years to meet the health and social care needs of the people of Angus.

As more people in Angus are expected to live with frailty, and with increasing demands on staff and budgets, we must make informed and realistic decisions about how adult community health and social care services are planned and delivered.

Please take a few minutes to complete our short survey and share your views: https://engage.angus.gov.uk/strategic-plan-review

Your feedback will help inform decisions and shape our a plan.

Deadline: 19th December 2025. If you need this information/survey in a different format, please email Tay.angushscp@nhs.scot or call 01307 492560 (office hours only).

Congratulations, Doug, you’ll always be our hero! 👏
