Care workers are at the heart of our communities, providing much needed support to some of the most vulnerable people.
We recognise that it’s a stressful and often emotional role, with higher levels of poor mental health experienced by care workers across the country.

Expert support for carers
Carecoins have been working with the care sector since 2021, providing expert mental health training and vital counselling and therapy services to those most in need
With your support we’re providing Carecoins free of charge to The Care Workers Charity (CWC) and Cornwall Partners in Care (CPIC), to provide vital mental health support to care workers across the UK.
Who we support
The Care Workers Charity (CWC)
The Care Workers Charity (CWC) was founded in 2009 with the aim of supporting and championing care workers and the vital role they play in society. Their activities focus on the advancing the financial, professional and mental well-being of care workers across the UK. This includes crisis support, financial grants and resources, as well as advocacy and campaigning on behalf of care workers everywhere.
Cornwall Partners in Care (CPIC)
Cornwall Partners in Care (CPIC) is a care association for all CQC registered care providers across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. With 17 of Cornwall’s districts ranking in the top 10% most deprived areas in the UK, financial pressures on care workers hit harder, especially with higher travel costs for domiciliary carers having to travel in rural areas. CPIC supports these carers through networking, training, and providing a collective voice for campaigning and advocacy, as well as offering mental health support to all carers across the region.

The support I recieved from Carecoins was invaluable.

Not having to wait weeks to speak to someone really made a difference. It felt like someone genuinely cared and wanted to help.
Harry
The training was excellent, and I feel like I can better support my colleagues with their mental health in a way I didn't know how to before.
Kwame
Just being able to pick up the phone and speak to an expert when I wasn't sure what to do next was so comforting. Having that safety net is an amazing feeling.

Care work doesn’t stop, and having access to professional support at any point is a vital contribution we’re looking to make to the care sector.
