You Matter Too
Last October, on Carents Day, hundreds of carents spent a day doing something they often don't get to do - taking out time to focus on themselves.
We held sessions on mindfulness, creative writing, grief, fitness and many more. All sessions were free, all were online, and all designed for people who spend most of their time thinking about someone else.
This year, we're doing it again.
Carents Day 2026 is on Thursday 8th October. The theme is You Matter Too. Because it can be easy, when you're carenting, to forget that you do.
Register your interest below and you'll be the first to hear when the full lineup goes live.
