The STEP analysis proved to be relatively easy‚ in some was it is similar to SWOT‚ in that once a start has been made it is difficult to stop.

According to a government website a “carer is someone who looks after a friend‚ relative‚ or neighbour who needs support because of their sickness‚ age or disability.” A 2001 census report noted that “6 million people said that they provide unpaid care to a family member.” This is 12% of the adult population in the United Kingdom.
