What is a young carer?
- Do you help someone look after someone in your family?
- Is this because they are ill, disabled or have problems with drugs, alcohol or their mental health?
- You may be doing the shopping, cooking or housework you may be helping them wash and dress; you may be spending a lot of your time with them; you may be helping with medicines.
- Do you miss out on social activities, have no time to go out, be unable to have your friends around miss school to look after your relative?
- Do you sometimes feel angry tired or lonely?
Where can I get help?
