    News/Events Category: General News


    Come one, come all! Fife Carers Centre are organising a community walk of the Fife coastal path during Carers Week (6th - 12th June 2016) to raise awareness of who unpaid carers are and how this role impacts their lives.

    As the theme for carers week this year is building carer friendly communities, they've decided to ask the community to get together to do something positive to pledge support for carers. They would like to invite groups of friends, families, individuals, organisations, NHS, Fife Council, schools, care homes, charities, community groups and anyone else we have missed to take part in our coastal path challenge.

    You don't have to be super fit, just willing to give it a go and walk for as much or as little as you can manage, take a selfie and send it to us along with details of which part of the coastal path you have walked. You can pledge to walk on any day of carers week that you are free.

    If you are feeling generous you could also pledge to raise some money for Fife Carers Centre - this would go directly to supporting unpaid carers in Fife.

    If you are interested, please contact by e-mailing: [email protected] or [email protected] and they will sign you up.

    They will send you a resource pack which will include details of the fife coastal path, some health and safety guidelines, a fun competition, a permission slip to display your photo and a small placard on which you can make a pledge re what you will do to help build carer friendly communities.

    If you feel like dressing up, dancing, kayaking or cycling along the path then feel free. There will be a prize for the most creative walker.
