The NHS has pledged to do more to help the millions of carers who provide unpaid care across England.

New NHS England chief executive Simon Stevens (pictured) launched a document, which shows eight priorities and 37 commitments to help the NHS deliver the support carers have said they need.

This includes a national event for young carers, a carers’ champion on the board of NHS England, and promoting carers’ interests through, for example, work on personalised care planning, end of life care and dementia.
