Unpaid caring Funding Questions?
Posted: Sat Dec 07, 2019 12:34 am
How much money is provided for unpaid carer support, are there any figures per year?
and who decides how the money is spent?
I have asked for advocacy, but as soon, as I mentioned I am an unpaid carer then I was refused Advocacy. The Advocacy place do not get funding for unpaid carers.
But under the Care Act Advocacy can be provided, No we don't do that for unpaid carers.
Where can I find out where the money goes, I am repeatedly told by organisations that they have no Funding for unpaid carers, so therefore cannot help.
Freedom of information request? to the council.
