West Yorkshire and Harrogate Health and Care Partnership has been shortlisted for a prestigious Health Service Journal (HSJ) award in the System Led Support for Carers category.
The Partnership is formed from the NHS, councils, independent care providers, Healthwatch and hundreds of carer and community organisations. It says it is working together across the region to further support 260,000 unpaid carers, including young people who care for parents and siblings.
Category winners for the awards will be announced on the 21 November in London.
Fatima Shah-Khan, Partnership lead for unpaid carers said: “We want West Yorkshire and Harrogate to be a place where carers are identified, valued and supported so that all carers no matter how old or where they live receive the same level of care and attention. We have a great opportunity to work together and raise the profile of the care delivered by unpaid carers. We’re delighted to have been short listed for this award especially as we are at the start of our work and there is still much to do”.
