People accredited with the Carer's Card have access to the programme of activities for family carers, domestic workers and caregivers.

Visit this calendar, which is periodically updated. All activities are free of charge.

People with a Carer's Card receive a monthly newsletter with the most important news, resources and what’s on in the month.

They also get personalised communications based on their interests, whether it be news of interest in the field of care, the city activities calendar, information on physical, cultural and leisure activities or information capsules with practical information useful for care.

Information, guidance and personalised advice is offered to resolve doubts and concerns that arise in the day-to-day care process, for example, advice on care when an illness is diagnosed or there is a bereavement, among other situations.

The service is offered in person, by telephone and/or online at the Espacio Barcelona Cuida (Barcelona Cares Centre) and the 16 Vilaveïna territorial units.

Caregivers have access to the free and anonymous 24-hour, 365 days a year counselling helpline.

To access this service, it is necessary to have a personalised access code that you will receive in the Card registration email.

You can make use of the service by calling 900 505 805 and providing the code you have received.

The Espacio Barcelona Cuida (Barcelona Cares Centre) offers information and specialised support for families and workers throughout the process of formalising a contract for work in the home, whether it be the formalities to be carried out or information on how to draw up a pay slip, for example. The aim is to promote the regularisation of the employment situation, to ensure that care work is carried out under fair and dignified conditions, and to fight against job insecurity, labour market segmentation, the feminisation of poverty and double working hours.

To access this service, it is necessary to make an appointment by telephone, online or in person at the Espacio Barcelona Cuida (Barcelona Cares Centre).

People with a Carer's Card can go to participating pharmacies with a sign on the entrance door to find out about the card’s benefits and the services available to carers.

Information on the calendar and registration procedure for the training sessions can be found in the Infocuras newsletter and in the activities calendar on the website.

The Vila de Gràcia, Vilapicina i La Torre Llobeta, Camp de l'Arpa, Gòtic and Les Corts libraries have a specific collection of books and audiovisual material related to care and personalised attention for caregivers.

The programme will gradually be extended to the rest of the city's libraries.
