National Schemes Offering Carers Discounts - You Need Additional Documentation

  • Carers Cinema Tickets

    Many cinemas provide free tickets for unpaid carers when you accompany the person you care for. To access this, you usually need to have what is known as a CEA Card. These are issued through a national scheme run by the UK Cinema Association. They cost £6 and last for one year.


    To be eligible for a CEA Card, the person you care for must be aged 8 years old or above and receive one of these benefits:


    Disability Living Allowance (DLA).

    Attendance Allowance (AA).

    Personal Independence Payment (PIP).

    Armed Forces Independence Payment (AFIP).


    For more details and to apply for the card press the button below.

  • National Trust Properties

    The National Trust offers free entry to any of its sites for up to two carers or essential companions The person you care for will still need to either pay for entry or have National Trust membership for themselves though.


    The National Trust also offers what is known as an Essential Companion card, which can be shown when you arrive at the attraction, making the process of gaining this free entry easier and quicker. This can be particularly good if you intend to visit one or more sites regularly. This card is issued to the person who requires care, and they can use it to bring anyone they like, including bringing different people every time if they wish.
