Centrica has joined forces with Carers UK in a three-year strategic partnership that aims to improve the lives of the 6.5 million carers in the UK, those who provide unpaid care for a friend or family member

Centrica will develop, "new products and services aimed at improving the quality of carers’ lives," as part of the partnership

Centrica aims to raise £1 million for Carers UK over the course of the partnership and increase public awareness of issues related to carers

Following the success of its own policy, Centrica, the parent company of British Gas and Hive, is urging the U.K. government to ensure that all carers have the right to request flexible working from the day they start working with a company, along with a statutory paid carers’ leave policy.
