Fancy the chance to win £100? Join the 2025 Carers Quest

Join us from 9th to 22nd June 2025 as we launch our epic Carers Quest, to celebrate this year's Carers Week. Our unique initiative designed to ‘Put Carers on the Map', highlights the increasing pressures on carers and the need for carers to explore the area for more support from organisations, directly or indirectly.

What is Carers Quest?

Carers Quest is a treasure hunt-style event across Trafford where local organisations and businesses will host free drop-ins, activities, stalls, or items throughout Carers Week. This engaging initiative invites carers and the people they care for to explore various services, collect points, and have a chance to win exciting prizes. Prizes include £100 for the carer with the most stamps PLUS prizes of £70 and £30 are up for grabs to anyone who collects at least one stamp via a lucky dip!

How Does Carers Quest Work?

1. Collect Your Booklet: Carers will receive a booklet containing information about all the participating events, activities, and stalls.
2. Visit and Engage: Drop into any of the listed events throughout the week. Each visit will earn you a stamp in your booklet.
3. Collect Points: Each stamp will contribute to your chances of winning a prize!
4. Submit Your Booklet: At the end of the two-week event, submit your booklet to Trafford Carers Centre, online or in person, to be entered into the prize draw.

Why Participate?

• Win Prizes and get discounts around Trafford.
  • Discover Support: Connect with information, advice, groups, activities, and events that you might not have been aware of.
  • Raise Awareness: Help raise the profile of carer identity and support in your community.
  • Combat Isolation: Engage with others, reducing the feeling of isolation that many carers experience.
  • Build Relationships: Establish long-term connections with local organisations that can provide ongoing support.

Who Can Participate?

This event is open to all unpaid carers, including those supporting individuals who are frail, have a disability, special condition, mental health condition, Alzheimer’s, dementia, or addiction. The activities are designed to accommodate both the carer and the person they care for.

How to Get Started

To participate, Carers signed up with us at Trafford Carers Centre will be sent a booklet in the post the week before so that you can start planning your visits! Each stamp you collect brings you one step closer to a monetary prize and opens up a world of support and resources.

Join us in celebrating and supporting the incredible work of carers in our community. Let’s make Carers Week an event to remember!
