Survey of adult carers in England
Findings from, and guidance and materials for, the survey of adult carers, which collects the opinions and experiences of unpaid carers aged 18 and over in England.
The survey of adult carers in England (SACE) is conducted by councils with adult social services responsibilities (CASSRs) in England every 2 years. The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) publishes findings from the survey.
The survey seeks the opinions of unpaid carers known to their local authority, to understand the impact of caring responsibilities on their quality of life. (CASSRs are referred to as local authorities in the survey and findings.)
This page brings together:
- statistical publications exploring the survey findings
- guidance for local authorities on conducting the survey and submitting data for each survey year
SACE findings were previously published by NHS England.
