Hundreds of hotels nationwide donate room nights to our charity every day out of their excess capacity. Through Carefree you can access a 1-2 night hotel stay with a companion, at a time and place that works for you.
To be eligible you need to be over 18 years of age and provide more than 30 hours of unpaid care per week.
We charge a £33 admin fee per break to help us run our charity. You’re also responsible for paying for your travel and other expenses.
Most hotels offer double or twin rooms with breakfast included. You can take someone with you, but this should not be your cared-for person so that you can truly get a break away from caring.

“It had been over a year since I had a day to myself to just think and breathe. It was like being in another world, being able to just sleep and eat for one day in peace.”
Kayley, who stayed at Village Hotel Coventry
“This break taught me that I need to take more care of myself so I can take better care of them.”
Patricia, who stayed at Dunston Hall Hotel
“It was like stepping into another world for a brief moment.”
Hayleigh, who stayed at DoubleTree by Hilton Bath

Collen, who stayed at St Giles Hotel
