Young Carers

Are you a Young Carer?

Do you help look after someone who has:

  • an illness;
  • a disability;
  • a mental health condition; or
  • an addiction?

You may be helping with:

  • cooking and cleaning;
  • keeping an eye on and supporting a sibling; and/or
  • providing emotional support when things get tough.

Looking after someone is a pretty amazing thing to do, but it can be a lot to take on.  YOU ARE NOT ALONE and we are here to support you!

We have 12 Young Carer Champions – staff across the whole school – who are available to offer you support, someone to talk to who understands and can help if needed.  We have meetings in M2 each week – please drop in.
