No it wouldn't. Remember that for someone to claim Carers allowance they must look after you for at least 35 hours per week and not earn any more than £132 per week. You must also have a daily living award of PIP. https://www.gov.uk/carers-allowance/eligibility

Thankyou so much for info I do appreciate it

I realise this may not apply but note too that if the other person who will be caring for you is claiming UC they can simply ask for the carer element to be added to their UC without the need to claim Carer's Allowance itself.
