We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Increase the amount of Carer's allowance to at least £150 per week. More details
Submitted by Sally Reynolds – Deadline to sign up by: 25 March 2008 – Signatures: 62
More details from petition creator
At present Carers are paid (via carers' allowance)the princley sum of £48 per week. To employ someone to do the same work would cost in excess of £250 per week, it is therefore not unreasonable to ask the Government to make a realistic payment to people who chose to care for their disabled dependants.
