Resources for family carersHi Sazum I've only just joined the group so just seen your email. The government criteria for AA can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/attendance-allowance/eligibility It's worth having a look at. In addition, quite a few county councils are funding support for informal / family carers, and in a lot of countys there is a 'carers' organisation frequently funded by the county council to support and advise carers. For example I recently worked for Carers in Hertfordshire as the GP Liaison Officer (before moving out to Spain in semi retirement). CinH provide a hotline for queries and support for carers in the Herts area - and I'm sure other countys have something silmilar (if not as fantastic as CinH!!!! :-) ) If you need further info, but all means ping me a message - my email is [email protected] - if I can advise you, I will and if I don't know, I might be able to point you to someone who does.
