carers Allowance and Unpaid Carers

davegregson40

Dear Community Members 

Yesterday in Parliament the issue of Carers Allowance was raised by Liberal Democrat Leader ED Davey MP during Prime Ministers Questions but there was not a definitive answer from the Government and today of course has been carers awareness day. This is from the Yorkshire Evening Post om the

woodbine

The true fact is that carers save the country billions £, I can understand Ed Davey taking this up as he has a disabled child and understands (although it has to be said that the same thing didn't work with Cameron), we are unlikely to see any positive moves on the issue in the short to medium term i'm sorry to say..

Hi @davegregson40 Thanks for sharing this. Is there any way you could summarise what the article says? It's not accessible for screenreaders, and I'm also struggling to read what it says as a sighted person.

Hi,

Thanks for sharing but i have no idea what it says because it's virtually impossible to read.

Thanks for sharing this article, it seems interesting, but yes it isn't very accessible. 

I think this may be the article you're referring to?
