Kingston Carers Network Annual General Meeting and Carers Rights Day 2026

Thursday 19 November 2026
13:30 to 18:00

Join us for an afternoon of rights, connection and activities as we celebrate the past year and look to what’s ahead.

Our Annual General Meeting and Carers Rights Day will bring together carers of all ages, their families, supporters and the wider Kingston community.

Carers Rights Day is an opportunity to find out more about your rights, entitlements and the support available to you, while connecting with our team and partner organisations.

There’ll also be plenty of opportunities to take part in fun and creative activities and enjoy a showcase of performances celebrating carers and KCN’s work.

A key highlight will be the launch of our new film produced with Media Trust, Brother Film and supported by City Bridge Foundation, created to help increase awareness and support for unpaid carers across Kingston.

The afternoon will also include an opportunity to hear about KCN’s work and achievements over the past year at our Annual General Meeting.
