Family Fund 'Cost of Caring 2025' report reveals the reality for families raising disabled or seriously ill children
A new report from Family Fund, the UK's largest grant-making charity for families raising a disabled or seriously ill child, reveals the impact on the finances and wellbeing of families in this situation.
Based on responses from more than 2,300 families raising disabled or seriously ill children across the UK, 'Cost of Caring 2025' shows that while families are doing all they can, many struggle day-to-day because of the unavoidable pressures of caring and the additional costs associated with disability. The report includes a series on recommendation on how the situation could be improved. You can find out more and read the full report (in English and in Welsh) here.
