Carers Scotland publish ‘Unlocking the door’ report 

Carers Scotland has published a report looking at how to make employment a meaningful choice for Scotland’s unpaid carers. 

Authored by the University of Strathclyde, ‘Unlocking the door’ highlights the barriers unpaid carers in Scotland face when seeking the employment that the majority of those surveyed (69%) wanted to find so they could lead a life beyond caring. 55% of those surveyed also said they wanted to increase their earnings beyond just paying their bills.
