We are encouraging all carers to check their entitlement so they don\u2019t miss out on money they could now receive.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, she also warned that the wider picture remains deeply concerning. \u201cEven with the recent increase, Carer\u2019s Allowance remains the lowest benefit of its kind,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNearly two-thirds of Carer\u2019s Allowance recipients live in poverty, and the vast majority think it falls short of meeting their financial needs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more information about Carer\u2019s Allowance and its eligibility criteria, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carersuk.org\/help-and-advice\/financial-support\/carers-allowance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.carersuk.org\/help-and-advice\/financial-support\/carers-allowance\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who can claim Carer\u2019s Allowance?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>You may be eligible if you:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>care for someone for at least 35 hours a week<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>earn no more than \u00a3204 a week after deductions (from 6 April)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>are aged 16 or over<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>are not in full-time education<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>care for someone who receives a qualifying disability benefit<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A major Carer\u2019s Allowance shake-up from 6th April could mean thousands of unpaid carers now qualify for nearly \u00a34,500 a year &#8211; but many may not realise it Thousands of unpaid carers across the UK are being urged to check whether they could now qualify for extra financial support, as changes to Carer\u2019s Allowance come [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3233,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[74],"tags":[5225,75,5226,5227,1907,78,408,81,65,82,1910,86],"class_list":["post-9190","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news","tag-benefits","tag-bradford","tag-carers-allowance","tag-carers-uk","tag-helen-walker","tag-lancashire","tag-london","tag-manchester","tag-midlands","tag-national","tag-unpaid-carers","tag-yorkshire"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
