More than 100 unpaid carers in Scotland have enjoyed time at Crieff Hydro Family of Hotels since it pledged its support to Shared Care Scotland’s Respitality initiative seven months ago.
The leading hotel group is supporting the project by donating bed and breakfast stays at all eight hotels in its portfolio, 50 family passes to Action Glen Adventure Park at Crieff Hydro Hotel and a group two-hour Gin School experience at 1881 Distillery in Peebles.
Since June 2021, more than 100 unpaid carers have visited Crieff Hydro Family of Hotels for some much-needed fun and recuperation as part of the programme.
One of the unpaid carers, who took a short break from her caring role with her family, has praised the organisations who made it happen.
Vanya Zaczek is an unpaid carer for an older family member and had the chance to enjoy family time at Action Glen at Crieff Hydro Hotel.
Vanya said: “I was delighted when I was offered this short day break - I juggle single parenting as well as my caring role, so it allowed me the quality time to not only focus solely on my children, but also make special and fun memories with them.
“We decided to make it a celebration for my son’s sixth birthday, which made it that extra bit special.
“Short breaks like these are so valuable to unpaid carers like myself – it’s so important we prioritise self-care, and initiatives like these mean we can slow down and make the time for ourselves.
“My local carers organisation PKAVS are a Respitality partner, and they arranged the voucher on my behalf, so it meant I didn’t have to even worry about arranging anything, making it even more of a treat.
“We cannot thank everyone involved enough - it allowed us to have some very precious and quality family time
