Ok guys have a quesion wondering if anyone can help. My mum is finding it hard to look after both my brother and sister thinking of giving up my careing  job, the problem is money. I know that I could get the carers allowance which is about £60 any ideas what else I could claim to help with finances thanks in advance

Hi @amanda1, I'd recommend taking a look at the online benefits calculator as it'll let you know what else you could be entitled to. Money Advice Service also have some good guidance on what else can be claimed alongside Carers Allowance. Hope this helps!
