State of Caring Survey 2016

Could you help to highlight the reality of what it means to care for a family member or friend in 2016? ...  The ‘State of Caring Survey’ is run each year to find out what life is like for people who are in caring roles, and what needs to change to make life better for them.  In Northern Ireland, a number of changes to social security will come into force over the course of this year as a result of the Welfare Reform Act 2012.  Your evidence will help to assess the impact of this and how carers will be affected.  The Government is also looking at carers as part of its Review of Social Care, so it’s an important time to gather evidence on how local carers experience health and social care services.  To complete the survey, visit: http://carersuk-news.org/74C-435SJ-O8VSA-20KM0O-1/c.aspx
