Someone you know is a carer – but do they know it yet?

The 19th November 2026 is Carers Rights Day, and we’re celebrating by hosting a very special coffee morning.

Date: Thursday, 19th November 2026

Time: 10:30 AM – 1:00 PM (Drop-in style)

Location: Room 404, Aidan House, NE8 3HU (view on Google Maps)

We can spend years supporting a partner, family member, friend, or neighbour without ever thinking of ourselves as an carer; we simply see it as part of looking after someone we care about. Because of this, there are thousands of carers who miss out on vital rights, recognition, and support.

 

Are you looking after someone, but haven’t connected with support yet?

If you’ve never connected with an organization before, this coffee morning is designed with you in mind. You don’t need a formal label or registration to join us. Come along for a relaxed, friendly chat and discover what support is out there.

 

What to Expect:

  • Chatting with other local carers: Grab a hot drink, some cake, and a biscuit while connecting with our team and other carers.
  • Information & Advice: Pick up helpful resources detailing your rights as a carer and learn more about what services are available across Gateshead.
  • No Pressure Guidance: Learn more about your rights as a carer and how Caregivers Connected Gateshead can help make things a little easier
  • Take-Home Gifts: Every attendee will receive an information pack alongside a small self-care gift.

 

You don’t have to care by yourself. Drop in, grab a warm drink, and find out what support you and your family deserve.

No need to book—feel free to drop in anytime between 10:30 AM and 1:00 PM. We look forward to seeing you there!
