Fit 2 Care define a carer as being someone who has an active caring role for a relative or family member who has a disability or disabling condition. They do not need to be in receipt of carers allowance or live with the person they care for. Caring for a disabled person could involve cooking, cleaning, shopping, personal care and supervision on a regular basis that impacts on your usual day to day life.
We cannot allow under 18’s (young carers) to take part in the classes due to insurance limitations. Also our terms of funding means paid care workers cannot take part either.
