Carers UK are carrying out a survey of carers' experiences of direct payments.

Some carers and disabled people say direct payments have changed their lives for the better by giving them choice and control. Some carers say they feel like they are forced into accepting direct payments when they don't really want them or fully understand how they work.

All carers in the UK are invited to take part, where the person you care for is receiving a service wholly or partly funded through Social Services.

You can complete the online survey here:

The closing date is Monday 16 June 2008
