Unpaid carers work 24/7/365. There's no sick pay, union, workers rights, clocking off or holiday days for us. Our loved ones rely on us to be there for them and more often than not during the pandemic we've been asked to step up and take on even caring. Many of us have given up our careers to care full time and gone from earning good money to being paid a weekly pittance known as Carers Allowance. How many MP's would take on the levels of responsibility we have for such a small amount of money?
