Education and Young Carers

There is a massive role for schools and education services in identifying and supporting young carers, in taking away any stigma and in raising awareness for young carers and their peers.

We plan to work alongside education services to grow support and understanding.

Young But Not Carefree

On 4th February 2008 we  held an awareness event for representatives from all schools in Walsall. You can see the brief feedback from the event here;

and the case studies everyone worked on here.

There was also an information poster for each school designed in partnership with the young people who have also worked on the design of this site (thanks again!)

One for secondary schools & one for primary schools

There is information about recognising and supporting young carers on teachernet look here
