- When support is available
- We provide information and guidance to unpaid carers. This covers a range of subjects including: benefits and financial support, your rights as a carer in the workplace, carers' assessments and how to get support in your caring role, services available to carers and the people you care for, how to complain effectively and challenge decisions. If you feel you need help in these areas, or want to ask a question that might be helpful to you with your caring, please get in touch. We’re not always able to provide the same level of specialist information and support by telephone as we can by email, so if we’re unable to help you in this way over the phone, we will tell you about other ways to get this support including guiding you towards other services and organisations that can offer support.
