To be a carer you have love,duty & respect!When that person dies you are alone!
You will generally find you're not entitled to any benefit.Carers allowance pays a credit contribution to a possible future pension,not national insurance contributions.So for being a government slave 35 hours minimum at £62 a week is not the minimum wage! Used/ abused and dumped on at the end.

However to say that organisations are not doing anything is simply wrong. Organisations like Carers UK have done a lot to highlight various issues for carers, including what happens when their caring duties come to an end.
In its submission to the carers strategy evidence in 2016 it included:
A new programme of work looking to support former carers – and support pre and post-bereavement, including a review of benefits to give longer benefit runons and support with returning to work.
I would strongly recommend you give them a call on 0808 808 7777 as they will be able to discuss your individual circumstances and advise you what benefits you are now entitle to.*Calls to the Adviceline are free if you are calling from any landline or from the following mobile phone networks:

- Vodafone

- Virgin Mobile
Calls from other networks may not be free so check with your provider. Charges will also apply for any calls made outside of the UK.
I hope you are able to get some help and advice as you don't deserve to be treated like this.As an individual I stood alone.
As a member of a group I did things.
As part of a community I helped to create change!
