Carerwatch

By Weasel, August 10, 2009 10:09 pm

A comment from Rosemary on my last post mentioned a group called Carerwatch. A Campaign group run by independant, unpaid carers for carers, they're working to provide a nonpartisan political platform to educate politicians and the media about Carers and the Care system.

And more importantly, to change things.

They've got Campaigns on the go at the moment to fight the disproportionate impact on people with mental health issues from the welfare reform bill, the current Threats to the DLA and AA and the frequently shitty financial situation of many carers faced with inadequate support from a disinterested administration.

They're good people, go take a look at what they're up to and get involved.
