Care: all the activities that take place to make, remake, maintain, contain and repair the world (Fisher and Tronto).

Carer: anyone, including children and adults, who looks after a family member, partner or friend who needs help because of their illness, frailty, disability, a mental health problem or an addiction, and cannot cope without their support. The care they give is unpaid (NHS England).

Care aesthetics: art that has the lived experience of care/caring apparent in the form and/or intrinsic to the production and meaning of the work (with a huge debt to Tobin Siebers).
