Women are being driven to the brink by Britain's social care crisis The appalling toll of the social care crisis on women can be revealed today.
Official figures show that looking after loved ones is having devastating effects on their health and quality of life.

The figures come from a major NHS survey of 50,800 unpaid carers which found that 68 per cent of them are female. The Daily Mail
