In her inaugural lecture, Family Carers: beyond visibility, Mary Larkin, Professor of Care, Carers and Caring, will explore the role of family carers and explore what “visibility” means through the lens of her own contribution in this field.

Mary Larkin is Professor of Care, Carers and Caring in the OU’s Faculty of Wellbeing, Education and Language Studies. Her main research interests are primarily: care carers and caring (paid and unpaid) but more specifically include adult social care, relational care, student carers, former carers, carers of people with type 2 diabetes, older carers, carer and service user empowerment, the third sector and the life course approach to health and well-being.

In her inaugural lecture, Professor Larkin will conclude by exploring her own vision of family carer visibility in the future.
