Championing and recognising the 7.3 million paid and unpaid carers across the UK this winter
As part of our annual Night’s on Lottie pledge to recognise and reward carers—both paid and unpaid—for their hard work all year round, this Christmas, we’re on a mission to celebrate the joy and magic carers spread every day.
This festive season, we’re calling on you to nominate carers who go above and beyond. From Thursday 21st November, to Monday 9th December, we’ll be running a Carers Christmas Giveaway. We’re encouraging nominations for carers across the UK to be in with the chance of winning one of three Airbnb vouchers of £250 to enjoy a restful night’s break wherever and whenever they like.
Join us in celebrating these dedicated individuals who make a difference daily. Nominate yourself or a carer you know to help us spread the magic of Christmas—and gratitude for their unwavering care.

Launched in 2022, Nights on Lottie is our ongoing pledge to honour the dedication of carers across the UK by providing 1,000 free nights.
2022: Through a partnership with Unplugged, we've offered both paid and unpaid carers the chance to win a three-night stay at a peaceful, off-grid cabin, creating a space for them to relax.
2023: We continued the champion carers with a Carers Christmas Countdown, gifting carers with vouchers from popular brands such as John Lewis, Uber Eats and Sainsbury's.
The nominated individual must be a care worker or carer (paid or unpaid). Competition winners will be required to verify this as part of the acceptance process.

The winner must also consent to sharing their experiences as a carer with Lottie. Case studies may be used by Lottie for future marketing and campaigning purposes, but will remain anonymous as part of our ongoing mission to raise awareness of the experiences of carers across the UK

The inspiring stories of compassion and friendship from Chorleywood Manor Care Home
Yvonne, 88, lost the ability to paint after a stroke, but with Patrick's support, she learned how to paint with her left hand. Over seven years, their shared love of art and carol singing has created a deep friendship that shines brightly at Christmas.
Eric, 93, is known for his light-hearted sense of humour. He and Wendy have formed a close friendship over the past three years, sharing outings around town and to the local pub. Wendy describes Eric as a joy to be around, and their friendship inspires her daily.
Over the past 18 months, Ola and Ann have built a special bond, with Ann becoming particularly fond of Ola's patient and loving care. Their friendship blossomed during garden walks filled with singing and conversations, during which Ann shares life advice. Ann and Ola are known as being 'two peas in a pod.'
Lottie’s team of care experts have carefully created insightful guides offering free guidance and support.
