WHITE PAPER ON CANCER CARERS

September 22, 2017

This White Paper is a joint collaboration between the European Cancer Patients Coalition (ECPC) and Eurocarers, aimed at presenting European policy-makers at the European Union (EU) and national level with policy recommendations for a robust policy framework supporting cancer carers. Carers are people who provide unpaid care to someone with a chronic illness, disability or other long-lasting health or care need, outside a professional or formal framework1 . These people provide 80% of care in Europe2 but the increasing burden of chronic diseases such as cancer mean that urgent policy action is needed to ensure the sustainability of caregiving.
