Question 21
Do you provide regular unpaid personal help for a friend or family member with a long-term illness, health problem or disability?
The results of question 21 will facilitate an assessment to be made of the extent to which unpaid personal help is provided by carers in our society, along with the demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the carers themselves. This question was asked for the first time in Census 2002.
