So you can guess I'm angry at all these strikes for more money, and those saying they need food banks I suggest not having holidays, I ain't had one since 2019. Or stop going out for meals and quit smoking.

You should get carers allowance plus income support and carers premium. If you live in Scotland you also get a carer supplement. You might have to attend work focused interviews while claiming income support but just tell them you are not looking for work. Income support is being moved to universal credit and there will be no work focused inteviews for carers on universal credit.
Let me check my bank statement:
DWP carer allowance £285.85 per month (you can get this weekly)
DWP income support + care premium £92.30 a week (will only show on bank statement as IS)
social-security-cas (Scotland) £245.70 twice a year (going up to £270.50 in 2023)
