From 9th to 15th June 2025, the UK will once again unite to recognise and celebrate the nation’s carers during Carers Week. At Bauer Media, we’re marking this important week with a dedicated campaign designed to shine a light on the incredible contribution carers make to society, while also promoting the many rewarding careers in the care sector.

For businesses and organisations involved in care, recruitment, or health services, this is a unique moment in the calendar to connect with compassionate, community-focused audiences. Our Carers Week campaign offers powerful advertising opportunities to raise brand awareness, drive recruitment, and support vital local services.

Why Carers Week Matters

There are more than 5.7 million unpaid carers in the UK, many of whom balance their caring roles with jobs, studies, or personal responsibilities. Carers Week is about making these often invisible contributions seen and valued. It’s also a timely opportunity to spark conversations around care, whether it’s accessing support or exploring a career within the sector.

This heightened awareness creates the perfect backdrop for businesses to deliver relevant, meaningful advertising campaigns that resonate deeply with audiences.

Powerful Advertising Opportunities to Inspire and Recruit

To help businesses make the most of this national moment, Bauer Media has created a special Carers Week advertising package that brings stories, careers, and community values to life across our network of local stations.

The package includes:

• 40” Sequential, Station-Endorsed Audio Trails
  These heartfelt trails feature personal stories and experiences from local people and carers, helping to humanise your message and inspire action. From showcasing a day in the life of a carer to highlighting the benefits of working in the care sector, these sequential trails create an emotional journey that sticks with listeners.
• Campaign Theme: “Together We Can”
  Every creative will support the campaign message: Together We Can make a difference to lives and communities around us. This unifying theme reinforces the positive impact of carers, and the organisations who support them.
• Multi-Channel Integration
  Alongside radio, campaigns can be supported with targeted social media, helping you connect with even more people across platforms like Facebook and Instagram. Whether you’re looking to build awareness or drive traffic to a recruitment page, our team can tailor the strategy to your goals.

Who Should Advertise?

These advertising opportunities are ideal for any organisation working in, or connected to, care services. That includes:

• Recruitment Agencies focused on healthcare, support work, or nursing roles
• Care Homes and Nursing Facilities looking to attract new team members
• Retirement Villages wanting to raise awareness of their services and ethos
• Local Authorities and organisations running Proud to Care initiatives
• Medical Jobs Boards and Healthcare Recruiters

With strong storytelling and emotional relevance, this campaign offers an excellent platform for brands that want to be associated with care, compassion, and community support.

Why Radio Works for Carers Week

Radio is one of the most trusted media platforms in the UK. It allows you to speak directly to people in their homes, cars, or on the move, making it a great medium for building emotional connection. During Carers Week, we expect listeners to be especially tuned into content that celebrates real people and shared experiences. That’s what makes these advertising opportunities so valuable: you’re not just promoting a service or job, you’re starting a meaningful conversation.
