Rent To Buy UK

I was not surprised to hear this morning that carers of which I am one. Save the taxpayers of the UK in excess of £87 million. I have over the years not been able to get credit EVEN though my credit rating is good. Carers learn very qyickly to cut the fat when they change their status from employee to carer. I would be interested to see how Mr Brown would manage on the DLA, ICA and child benefit I receive. The biggest issue for me as a carer is the lack of respite care given. Lack of respite care causes the government to spend MORE money NOT less. The reason being: Most carers do not give up. They plod on regardless. However, if they were to receive the support they would not work until they are ‘burntout’. Burnout means the carer takes longer to recover. The cared for person gets a lower quality of care
They may need hospital care, prescriptions for themselves, or something as simple as someone to talk to. The someone to talk to through the NHS means going on a waiting list and literally waiting. Usually anything up to six months. I ask myself where is the respect that is due to carers for their work?

If anyone knows please tell me
