Every day 6,000 people become carers. Many dont know how or where to get help. It can be frightening and very lonely.For some its sudden: someone you love is taken ill or has an accident, your child is born with a disability. For others, caring creeps up unnoticed: your parents cant manage on their own any longer; your partners health gets gradually worse. For carers, a call to the Carers UK Adviceline can make all the difference.
