If you are unsure if you are a Young Carer or if you are a parent and you think your child may be a Young Carer, you can get advice and support  from school, a guardian or from the School Nursing Team.
Please check out this website https://www.hct.nhs.uk/young-carers and watch the YouTube video on what it is like to be a Young Carer.
The School Nursing Team have produced – My YC Health Journal (which can help get you the support you need as a young carer). The booklet can be downloaded from the above website.
There are signposts to services that can help you and give you some tips on how to speak up when you need to.
