The carers card scheme offers carers discounts and concessions at retail and leisure venues throughout County Durham and Darlington.<\/p>\n

The County Durham and Darlington carers card, developed in partnership with\u00a0Darlington Borough Council<\/a>,\u00a0recognises and rewards the support carers provide to their neighbours, friends and loved ones.<\/p>\n

To receive discounts and concessions from businesses and organisations in the scheme, the carer will need to produce their carers card.<\/p>\n
