Summer dance held during Carers Week as part of milestone
Lanarkshire Carers is celebrating 30 years of delivering information, advice and support to carers in the area.
A 30th anniversary celebration summer dance was held as part of Carers Week 2025 to mark the occasion.
In 1995, a small group of carers met in a community hall with the shared interest of making things better for people who look after someone else, the people who care.
That was the start of Lanarkshire Carers and everything the charity has grown into and developed as a vital, progressive and dynamic organisation.
Lanarkshire Carers continues with its core purpose of working with and for carers to make a positive difference to their lives.
Barbara McAuley, CEO of Lanarkshire Carers, said: "It was a fantastic evening of food, entertainment and dancing. Many carers spoke about the impact Lanarkshire Carers has on their lives and how much they enjoy being part of the organisation and the 30th year celebration.
