LabelQ2.1 Care for anyone living with you - sick/disabled/elderly?
Question text Now some questions about informal care, that is care for those who are sick, disabled or elderly provided by non-professionals and generally unpaid. Some people have extra family responsibilities because they look after someone who is sick, disabled or elderly. May I check, is there anyone living with you who is sick, disabled or elderly whom you look after or give special help to (for example, a sick, disabled or elderly relative, wife, husband, partner, child, friend)?
