"The current model treats #family #caregivers as convenient gap-fillers rather than essential partners in #healing. This isn't just morally bankrupt—it's strategically foolish.": buff.ly/rrrlUDK

Unpaid home-Carers, deserve more respect an monetary help but, as governments do best- they take advantage.

#Southampton #bitternepark #localnews #kids #carers
Calling all #parents and #carers, this is a great opportunity to have your voice heard. The Global Equality Collective have an anonymous #survey asking for your experiences to help understand the #relationships between home and education settings. www.thegec.education/gec-homes
The figure shows reports of economic insecurity plotted against earnings from paid work. Earnings increase from left to right. At zero, earnings cross the Carer's Allowance limit of around 150 GBP per week. Past this limit, a carer loses eligibility for the allowance. Carers who never report receipt of the allowance in the survey experience less and less insecurity when their earnings are higher. For those with a history of benefit receipt, instead, insecurity doesn't decline smoothly. Arrears, the inability to save regularly, and money worries all spike past the earnings limit set by the allowance.
For unpaid #carers, earning more does not always lead to economic security.
Motivated by the recent #Carer's #Allowance scandal, I have a new working paper @usociety.bsky.social on how much insecurity carers experience, for how long, who's most exposed and why:
