I'd like some advice please.
I've been caring for my husband for six years and working full-time as well, I'm the only wage earner.
My local authority, Leicestershire, gives a one-off carer personal budget of up to £250 which I had last October for some counseling sessions.
I can also apply for an ongoing PB which would be weekly / fortnightly etc. I'm thinking of doing this because I really need some emotional support/ relaxation me time. Except I'm really not sure what to say I'd spend the money on in order to achieve those outcomes. Could I ask for support for embroidery classes? Piano lessons? Cleaning? Ironing?
What do other people spend their PB on please
