Campaign: Carers Cost Of Living Fund

February 15th 2023, By Anne Wright

National Carer Organisations have today launched a grass-roots campaign asking carers to call on the Scottish Government to include a Carers Cost of Living Fund in the budget.

We are asking carers to write to their MSPs using a template letter which sets out why carers have been so badly affected by the cost of living crisis and why they need financial support.

You will have seen that this has already received a lot of press coverage over the last few months, but the Government has still not committed any extra funding for carers.
