answer text

The number of informal carers (those who provide help for an adult or child within or outside the household), as recorded in the Family Resources Survey, is 5.6 million. Of these, it is estimated that 71% are providing less than 35 hours care per week. The FRS is known to underestimate the number of carers and the true figure is likely to be higher than this. Information on the number of those being cared for with ‘substantial care needs’ is not available as it is not possible to identify those individuals and their carers in existing survey or administrative datasets.
