The Carer's Allowance Supplement is available for those who claim Carer's Allowance by the 11th of October
I'm Matt Jones with news that if you're an unpaid carer living in Scotland and claiming Carer's Allowance you could be eligible for extra payments this winter. The Carer's Allowance Supplement is available for those who claim Carer's Allowance by the 11th of October. It could be worth up to 70 pounds extra a week and more in December. The Scottish Government says that around 90 thousand people in Scotland are eligible, and is urging people to check whether they qualify for the benefit.
