Information for unpaid carers

If you look after a family member, friend or neighbour who without your support would not be able to manage, you are a carer. They may have a physical or learning disability, dementia, mental health problems, may misuse drugs or alcohol or may be ill or frail. The person may live with you or elsewhere.
