Other support for carers

Whether or not you get Carer Support Payment, there's other help and support you may be able to get. This includes:

  • support from your local carer centre
  • a plan that outlines your needs and any other support you may be able to get (called an Adult Carer Support Plan or Young Carer Statement)
  • other benefits and financial support
  • short breaks
  • wellbeing support
  • extra support for young carers
  • support if you work or study while caring
  • support when your caring role ends
