Young Carers are those under the age of 18 who give support to a loved one. Although we support carers from the age of 17, young carers are eligible to apply for our My Time grant and when they are nearing 17 they will be eligible to join our Young Adult Carers (YAC) group.
There are a number of organisations supporting Young Carers both locally and nationally. Information about some of these can be found below or please contact us for more information.
Early Intervention & Prevention Service offer groups for Young Carers aged 11+
