Hi, attention to all carers! Keep up the great work!!

Nucky77

Has anybody seen and signed this petition for a parliamentary review of the rate of carers which I am sure many would agree with.  It only needs 100k signatures and is well on its way, see the following link. signatures. https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/617874

Even with 100,000 signatures it’s extremely unlikely anything will come of it. They debate the issue and make a recommendation to DWP who most likely won’t listen.

I very much understand what you are saying but I hope you will sign and share anyway, I live in hope that things will change if we keep making noise? 😀

It says the link is down. Though I won’t be signing it because for a lot of people claiming carers allowance affects some other benefits, so even if it was increased it will make no difference, as overall benefit entitlement will still remain the same.

Good morning @Nucky77 and thank you for sharing the details of this petition.  Is your support for the petition prompted by your own experience as a carer ?
