Create an nationally recognised card for carers

What the petition asks
Many disabled adults and children need a carers support to access visitor attractions throughout the UK. Many organisations accept proof of caring by producing copies of blue badges or disability benefits, however a carers card does not exist nationally.
The Government should create a nationally recognised carers card that could be managed by local councils in the same way the blue badge scheme is administered.
