📢The Government has announced plans to end the Carer’s Allowance cliff edge.

Currently, earning just £1 over the earnings limit can mean losing your entire allowance. Under the proposed changes, only £1 of support will taper away for every additional £1 earned.

This could make it easier for carers to increase their hours or accept a pay rise without losing all of their Carer’s Allowance.
