Carers

Are you a Carer?

A carer is someone who looks after a relative, partner or a friend who cannot manage at home without help due to a disability or illness or because they are elderly or frail.

There are estimated to be over 47,000 carers in Wiltshire alone.

Carers fall broadly into 3 groups:

  • Adult carers – an adult caring for another adult such as a spouse, partner, friend or relative
  • Parent carers – an adult who cares for an ill or disabled child
  • Young carers (under 25 years old) – a child or young person who is carrying out significant caring tasks and assuming a level of responsibility for another person which would usually be taken by an adult
