If your daughter goes to a fee paying after school club (or has to pay to use the gym alongside you) or your partner attends a fee paying day centre for example you can deduct these expenses; but the main (and most useful) deduction is payment into a pension plan - if in doubt speak to the Carers UK Adviceline team for the exact figures.Loraine_16111 wrote:I am a bit confused are you saying anything I pay for respite for me as I work 24 hrs a week and earn to much.i go to the gym which I pay for I also look after my daughter she comes gym with me as I look after her .
