Rutland County Council is celebrating strong results

from the latest survey of adult carers in England, with improvements recorded across satisfaction, social contact and access to information for local carers in the county. The survey, which takes place every other year, gathers feedback from unpaid carers who support family members, friends or neighbours. This year the council significantly increased participation by sending nearly 300 surveys out. Around three times more than in previous years, and got over 100 responses back, making a more representative sample.
