PEOPLE who care for disabled or seriously ill relatives may be unaware that more benefits are up for grabs.

Changes in the law, from April, mean carers may be entitled to extra help from the community.

A series of events will be staged in Bolton as part of National Carers Week, from June 11 to 17, to highlight the changes. These include an information display at Age Concern, Ashburner Street on June 14. Further details are from Bolton Carers Support on Bolton 363056.
