Carol I don't have carers at all. I won't pay their price and only get half a job done. So I have my own cleaner who I can trust and pay her £10 per hour. Besides cleaning which is her main job. She is on call 24 hours a day. Not that I have used it. But she will where she can take me for appointments and does my ironing for the same rate. I also have Rose on a Wednesday for two to three hours who will do what ever I want. She is free. A volunteer. Malcolm. xxxx
