Vocal - Voice Of Carers Across Lothian

Carers give more than any other group to society - their caring contribution in Scotland has been calculated to be worth £7.6 billion to Scotland’s economy!

But carers also lose out more than most – on income, pensions, time to themselves, friends and social opportunities. Many end up in great distress.

VOCAL's 'Invest in Carers' Appeal needs to raise £50,000 to secure continuation of VOCAL’s carer support and counselling services. These services provide a lifeline to carers in greatest need.

There are many ways to give and every little helps, please consider a donation according to your means.

VOCAL's Forth Rail Bridge Abseil is a great way to get involved and help raise funds for carer services.
