Are you a carer?

Do you help a family member, friend or neighbour that:

Is frail?

Has a disability?

Has a chronic mental illness?

Has a substance misuse problem with drugs or alcohol?

And this is not your paid job?

Do any of these statements apply to you?

Is this help regular and ongoing?

Does this help involve showering, toileting, dressing, or other personal care?

Does this help involve cleaning, cooking, shopping, transport and/or assistance with bills or other paperwork?

Does this care involve medication or other health care?

Would this person have difficulty managing on their own if you could not provide regular and ongoing support?

Do you receive Carers Allowance or no payment at all?

If you answered yes to any of these, you are a carer.
