title: Informal care: problem or solution?
abstract: Government policy stresses that care in the community must mean care by the community. Government policies have increasingly recognised, too, that care by the community means care by families. Yet social support policies have reduced the benefits available to carers. Hilary Graham examines the problems facing those giving and seeking informal care.
