I'm disabled due to mental health issues. I also care for my disabled father and partner.
I lost my job due to the effects of my cancer treatment.
i can't get good advice about benefits, getting respite for myself and partner.

Hi @rosie1963 and a warm welcome to the community.
I am very sorry to learn of your troubles - these are not good times. There should be, however, quite a lot of information available to you here on the site. You could try this link https://community.scope.org.uk/categories/ask-a-benefits-advisor which is one of four related to Employment, finances and disability benefits that you will find in the lower right of the page, white letters on a purple background. Explore the other links too where the subjects appear relevant to you.
You are in a safe place here, among friends, do not hesitate to tell us more about yourself or to ask any questions you may have.
Warmest best wishes to you,
Richard -
