	Once you actually find the Maltese section there is a write up about a break by a man who has been on one but there is very little information about what the nomination is for.

	This might help http://www.saga.co.uk/health/carers/ it has some details on former recipients I think add, if you read the Maltese holiday section it does give a little about what was provided for the person being cared for...

	I imagine they mean a family member who does the caring, and an offer of respite care for them to have a break.

	The local carers newsletter came this morning with a short article about the above.It gave a web address. That just gives details of who is eligible,e.g over fifty,not a professional carer etc and a form to nominate yourself or somebody else. Unfortunately,it gives no indication of what it is actually offering.
