The research shows that the vouchers would be an effective and affordable way to bring extra funding to older and disabled people, and would help businesses to retain the skills of their valued and experienced employees. The tax break could be used to buy a range of services for older and disabled people, including extra home care. A similar scheme is already helping parents with the costs of childcare and could easily be adapted to meet the needs of carers of older or disabled people
