If you are a carer and not getting all the support you're entitled to the below may well help you.

Even if you are getting what you are entitled to, the helpline and general carers' support via the website below could still be valuable in times of particular difficulty - or any time.

Carers UK have a helpline and various services to support carers as well as campaign for carers' rights. Carers UK operate nationally.

They have produced a new CARERS RIGHTS GUIDE which can be downloaded at the below link. There is versions for different areas of the UK.

Make sure you're getting as much support as you're entitled to!

You need it and deserve it!!

The most important thing is that you have found something of help - the reason Starbys shared the information was it would be there when people needed it.
