Rejected petition Bring CARER'S ALLOWANCE SUPPLEMENT to the whole of the UK
Rejected on
Bring in a twice yearly payment for people claiming carers allowance in the UK the same as given in scotland with the Scottish carers supplement
All carers are underpaid and a twice yearly payment would help so much. It is already offered in Scotland and it should be uk wide not just for the Scottish.
