Call You and Yours: Are you 'sandwiched' between caring for your parents and children?

Available for over a year

They've been dubbed the Sandwich Generation - those who care for ageing parents while still looking after their own children at home. Reports suggest one in five middle-aged people are part of it and it's starting to define a new way of living. It's just been announced that Allison Pearson's hugely popular newspaper column, Sandwich Woman, is to become a novel. On tomorrow's Call You and Yours, we'll be asking: How you cope with the sandwich of caring for both your elderly parents and younger children? We want to hear your stories of being in a so-called care "sandwich". How do you cope? What are the pressure points? What do you do and who do you turn to when it all goes wrong? Email us on [email protected] and join Winifred Robinson tomorrow at quarter past twelve. For advice related to caring, please contact Carers UK Carers UK helpline: 0808 808 7777 [email protected].
