  • Carers’ rights under the Care Act 2014, Children & Families Act 2014 and Social Services and Wellbeing (Wales) Act 2014
  • Top tips to secure an accurate and adequate carer’s assessment
  • Challenging an inaccurate or inadequate carer’s assessment / support plan
  • The carer’s right to say no: support that the carer is unable or unwilling to provide
  • Direct Payments from health or social services and the family carer role
  • Carers and respite provision
  • Carers’ rights at work: The Equality Act 2010
  • Arrangements when the cared for person can no longer live at home
