    Apart from ‘Carers Allowance’ is there any other benefit my carer can apply for, for them selves?

      It depends on their circumstances. Do they have a partner that works, savings etc. Carers Allowance can be claimed if your carer cares for you for at least 35 hours per week, isn't in full time education and earns less than £116 per week.
