Offaly's Family Carers Ireland wants the government to address the everyday issues.
Family Carers Ireland is calling for the Government to address the financial issues carers face everyday in the Budget.
The Offaly charity's State of Caring 2024 report found 69% of carers find it difficult to make ends meet.
It also found that 49% have paid privately for products or services which should be publicly provided to support their caring role.
Catherine Cox, Head of Communications and Policy, says the first step is to abolish the Carer’s Allowance means test:
