Just as an addition. Carers are allowed to earn up to £95 per week or £411.66 per month on top of the allowance ( don’t know why there is a discrepancy in the weekly/monthly amounts ) not a penny more tho. There are no benefits allowed akin to those if you are on Jobseekers allowance.. The Carers Allowance people do pay your National Insurance stamp though.

Trying to get a little work to earn the £95 is almost impossible. The assumption prospective employers seem to make is that you will be forever having time off tending family commitments. You can hardly blame them.
