Increase Amount Carers Can Earn To Help Keep People Out of Poverty

Additional Information

Carer's receive well below minimum wage, for working 35 per week ( £1.59 per Hour ).
But when attempting to financially improve circumstances, you are again penalised.... the restriction is being only allowed to earn £100 extra!!!
When is THIS government going to acknowledge & HELP people who actually SAVE this country so much money.
If we can both care & work, WHAT IS THE PROBLEM!!!
It makes people who care for someone, resentful that our living standards are compromised, JUST because we care ENOUGH to do something for very little money.
WAKE UP, and preferably remove the restriction totally, or at least set it up with sensible, flexibility in hours. That reflect the economic pressures that people are under at the moment in 2011. Carers, under pressure.......... please sign.
Let them know, enough is enough.
