eS4W want to gain quantitative data to support a change in the economic wellbeing of female carers in the Care Economy eS4W to commission a study using a similar methodology to the Counting on Care Work study in Massachusetts using data from, for example, the 2006 Census of Population and Housing and the 2006 Time Use Survey.
