Young carers
Support and advice
Children and young people under 18 who have caring responsibilities are often referred to as 'young carers.' These are young people whose lives are restricted in some way because they are supporting or taking responsibility for care of a person who is ill, has a disability or mental illness or misuses a substance. The majority of young carers are from single parent families and take on adult responsibilities.
