Thousands of unpaid carers in Wales are to get a £500 lump sum in recognition of the "pivotal role" they played during the coronavirus pandemic.
The cash boost will go to more than 57,000 carers as part of a £29million package announced by the Welsh Government.
Announcing the plans on Wednesday, deputy minister for social services Julie Morgan said she hoped the payment would "show how much we value and appreciate what they do".
