The future of unpaid care in Scotland: appendices 1-5

Support for unpaid carers has rightly become an important policy area in Scotland. In some ways, Scotland is ahead of other parts of the UK when it comes to developing services for carers. To build on this, the Scottish Executive undertook a project looking into the future needs of unpaid carers, and how services might need to change over the next 10 years. The aim was to  create a picture of what services unpaid carers need, and how best to deliver these services so that they make a difference to people’s quality of life.
