In over 28 years of service, we have helped many young carers to lead fuller childhoods. Please see the feedback below from some of our Young Carers.
“You supported us when we needed you the most. More my sister, but I was also caring for mum. It’s time we normalise this.”
– Megan Hughes, Actress & Be Free Young Carer
“She comes back different. She’s more of a child. She’s had time where she didn’t need to be an adult, she can be herself”
Parent of 12 year old young carer
“She talks to me like a friend and I forget about my responsibilities when I’m away from the house. And I have lots of fun when we go places”
18 year old young carer
“F has been fantastic for C! She looks forward to seeing her and comes home happy. The Service is really helping C”
Mum to 18 year old young carer
“R thoroughly enjoys herself, is always excited before and comes home happy; is more confident. Really enjoying the one-to-one time that I struggle to give her”
