Am I a carer?

You provide substantial unpaid care for a relative or a friend with care or support needs for six months or more.

And if you started your caring role recently, it will continue for at least six months.  The person you care for may be a partner, parent, family member, neighbour or friend. You may or may not live in the same house.
