Wales Social Care

A woman whose husband had to move care home has spoken of the "tears" and emotion as residents, staff and family at the former home discovered it was shutting.

But the payment will only be available to around 57,000 of Wales' estimated 370,000 unpaid carers.

Around 53,000 people will be eligible for the £1,000 net bonus, which can be paid either in one lump sum or via monthly installments.
