Carers
Support For Carers Who Are Already Stretched
Caring for someone can affect your money, time, sleep, energy and ability to work. It can also make admin feel impossible.
Carers often support everyone else before checking what help they may qualify for themselves.
Useful things to check
- Carer’s Allowance or carer-related benefits
- Council support and carers assessments
- Respite or local charity support
- Household bill discounts
- Social tariffs if the household receives qualifying benefits
- Grants for equipment, emergencies or essential items
