Disability benefits and support
If the person you care for has a long-term condition, poor health or a disability, they may be able to benefit from additional financial support. Or you may be able to claim some support for a condition or health issue you have. We explain the conditions for different types of benefits and how to apply.
Do you need to find out more?
You could contact our Helpline Team who will be able to carry out a benefits review, taking you through the steps to find out if there's any support you may be entitled to. You can book a free review with one of our advisers by emailing advice@carersuk.org
