| Annotation | Much of the literature on being a carer assumes that carers lives with, or near to, the person for whom they are caring. However, family responsibilities and work commitments mean that living nearer an older relative needing care is not necessarily possible. While the issues covered in this booklet may be relevant to all carers, hhe author writes from personal experience and practical knowledge gained as a long distance carer. Topics covered include: enduring power of attorney (or from April 2007, lasting power of attorney); banks and building societies; social services and other council services; pensions, tax and insurance; medical help; health and safety; and data protection.
