Tracking the costs of caring and benefit changes
|
We need your help!
Carers UK is gathering evidence about the financial costs of caring.
We need carers' stories on the extra living costs they face and the impact on their ability to earn.
In addition, 2013 will see the implementation of many of the Government's changes to the benefits system - including the start of Personal Independence Payment and Universal Credit, the benefits cap and changes to Housing Benefit and support with Council Tax.
We are recruiting a group of carers who can help us build detailed personal accounts of the costs they face as a result of caring and to track the impact of changes to benefits on their families.
This will help us demonstrate the huge financial pressures carers face and set out the consequences for carers of the Government's changes and cuts to the benefits system.
If you may be able to help please let us know by filling in your details.
