The Muscular Dystrophy Campaign is, in partnership with other members of the Neurological Alliance, is supporting the 2008 Carers Week.

In 2008 the fourteenth annual Carers Week will highlight the impact caring can have on carers' health and wellbeing. More than 2,000 carers have already contributed to Carers Week by taking part in the annual survey, now well-established as the largest annual survey of carers 'experiences and opinions.

The results, when published at the start of Carers Week, will report on those experiences; the rewards and the frustrations, and the effect on their health. What are the implications for carers, as well as those they care for?

Money off vouchers, valid from 9-30 June 2008, entitling carers to save 10% at Superdrug in a single transaction can be obtained by telephone request to 0845 2412582 or by visiting http://www.carersweek.org
