‘What if we said no?’

‘What if we said no?’ is a report of a survey of over 250 members of our Grandparents Raising Grandchildren Network.  It shows that many family and friends carers are living on low incomes and are particularly vulnerable to welfare reform and spending cuts. They are also more likely to be in poor health and almost half are caring for a child with a disability or special needs. Many of the children have experienced problems at school.
