Question(s)

Have you personally provided help or support to anyone in the last month because they have long term physical or mental ill-health, a disability or problems relating to old age? Do not include help given in a professional capacity or as part of a job, but include help or support given to your family, friends or neighbours.
INTERVIEWER: Include help for wife/husband/partner

Can I just check, are you only including help or support that you give this person/these people because they have long-term physical or mental ill-health, disability or problems relating to old age, or were you thinking about help more generally?

How many people do you provide this kind of help and support to?
