The European voice for informal carers

Dear Eurocarers members,

Thanks a million for attending the annual face-to-face meeting of our Research Working Group held in Ancona, Italy on the 30th November and 1st December 2023. The event was co-hosted by our colleagues from the National Institute of Health and Sciences on Ageing (INRCA) who have largely contributed to its success.

Please find the background documents and presentations used during the meeting below. As always, our secretariat (jn@eurocarers.org) remains at your disposal should you have any questions or comments about this event or our activities in general.

All the best,

The Eurocarers team
