Need financial help or support to care for a relative or friend? Call 03700 100 444 from 1.00pm to 3.30pm on Wednesday or e-mail moneybox@bbc.co.uk now.

Over 6 million people across the UK provide care for a loved one who is disabled, seriously ill or no longer able to look after themselves.

While many people try to maintain a job and a caring role, others have to leave work altogether resulting in financial hardship. The charity Carers UK say that around 6 in 10 carers face debts because of their responsibilities and that carers often miss out on the help they are entitled to.

Are you claiming the financial benefits or grants available to you?

Do you need assistance or a break from caring?

Does your home need adapting?

How do you get a carers assessment and what does it involve?

What are your rights if you want to work flexibly, reduce your hours or begin work again after time off?

Or perhaps you're a small employer whose staff need to combine work and a caring role?

Whatever you need help with, presenter Paul Lewis and guests will be waiting for your call. Joining Paul will be:

Marian Gell, Contact a Family.
Eddy Graham, Carers UK.
Lucy McLynn, Legal Advisor to Employers for Carers.

Call 03700 100 444 between 1pm and 3.30pm on Wednesday or e-mail moneybox@bbc.co.uk now. Standard geographic charges apply. Calls from mobiles may be higher.
