Looking after someone 2008/9 : a guide to carers’ rights and benefits
Carers have certain legal rights to benefits and other help. Carers UK is aware of many carers who do not know about their rights or how to get help. Every year £740 million of carers’ benefits are unclaimed. Carers UK is here to make sure carers know about their rights and the help available to them. This guide sets out what rights carers have and how they can get:
- financial help
- practical help
- help with combining work and caring.
To order a free copy of the guide call 0808 808 7777, alternatively you can download a copy of the guide.
Please find below an updated version of the Carers Rights Guide, full of up-to-date information on carers' rights and entitlements.
