Carers - grants and financial assistance from charities

There are charities and organisations where carers can apply to for a grant/financial assistance to help them maintain their caring role. Usually grants will be for an item of household equipment like a washing machine, or a grant to take part in some training, exercise, driving lessons or for a short break away for instance.

Specifally the Reading & West Berkshire Carers Partnership and the Carer’s Trust https://carers.org/grants-and-discounts/introduction helps carers to find charities that will make carer’s grants.

Please see the search results 'Financial Assistance for Carers' to the right for further details.
