Unseen angels in a broken system

By Anthony John Aldridge

Unseen Angels in a Broken System by Anthony John Aldridge is a powerful and deeply human exploration of the hidden world of caregiving in the UK.

Behind closed doors, millions of unpaid caregivers dedicate their lives to supporting loved ones managing medications, navigating complex healthcare systems, and carrying emotional burdens that often go unseen. This book brings their stories into the light, exposing both the resilience of caregivers and the systemic failures that leave them unsupported.

Drawing from lived experience and real-world insight, Aldridge takes readers through the realities of caregiving from financial hardship and isolation to mental and physical strain. But this is more than a critique. It is also a guide, offering practical knowledge, policy insights, and a roadmap toward a more compassionate and sustainable care system.

Blending personal narrative with social analysis, this book challenges readers to rethink how society values care and to recognise the individuals who quietly hold it together.

Whether you are a caregiver, healthcare professional, policymaker, or simply someone who wants to better understand the human side of care, this book is both an eye-opener and a call to action.
