The majority of unpaid carers, young carers and kinship carers are now providing more care than ever before, and often feel exhausted, anxious with no time to focus on their own wellbeing.
One third of carers (33%) of carers felt they were unable ‘to look after their own health and wellbeing’, and 44% stated that they were ‘lonely and cut off from people’. Caring behind closed doors report: Forgotten families in the coronavirus outbreak April 2020
