Surrey Carers Strategy 2021-24 (conducted on behalf of Surrey County Council and local NHS organisations)

Overview

The Surrey Carers Strategy 2021 - 2024 (see document attached below under related documents)  has been developed in partnership with carers, commissioners, stakeholders and providers. A lot has changed since the last strategy and we need to make sure our plans for the future remain relevant and meaningful to carers. Those responsible for planning support or services need to learn from carers' experiences and knowledge to ensure that the draft strategy is fit for purpose, that carers’ voices are heard, and their views and experiences taken into account in decisions which affect them.

Surrey County Council and the NHS clinical commissioning groups would appreciate it if you could take a few minutes to give us your thoughts on the draft strategy. We are particularly keen to hear how well it addresses what you consider to be the most important things for ensuring we have a robust offer for carers throughout 2021-2024.

Who is this survey aimed at?

This survey is for anyone who identifies (or has been identified) as a carer, including former carers – we are keen to hear from people with lived experience, irrespective of whether they are accessing/have accessed, now or have done in the past.

We are also keen to hear from those who work with carers, whether in health and social care, carers' support services, and/or the voluntary, community and faith sector.

The survey should take about 10 minutes to complete. Anything you say in this survey is reported anonymously and information about you will be grouped with information about others so that your identity will be completely hidden.

Do you require the survey in an accessible format such as easy read, large print or plain text?

We have attached accessible formats of the survey at the bottom of this page under 'Related Documents' however if you require an easy read version we would recommend requesting a hard copy. This can be obtained by contacting:
