Bedford Borough Council recognises and values the work done by informal carers. If you are a carer we want you to know about the advice and support that's available for you. Your health and well being is important and so is having a life outside your caring role. You may be entitled to receive payment from the benefit system. We are here to help and advise you so that you can continue giving care while taking into account your own needs in such areas as employment, training, education and leisure.
