In these dedicated young carers webpages you can access information about what it means to be a young carer, how caring responsibilities can affect education, health and daily life, and when and where to seek help. Young carers are often invisible within our community, quietly undertaking significant responsibilities as local Bromley heroes who provide invaluable and selfless support to family members. The webpages, supported by video content, offer a powerful insight into the important role young carers play, while also explaining their rights, available assessments, and the support that can be accessed.
The webpages bring together information on local and national services, activities and support groups for young carers, providing opportunities to relax, connect with others who share similar experiences, and participate in enjoyable activities within a safe and supportive environment.
Family members, carers and professionals working with children and families may also find the information helpful, enabling them to better understand the challenges young carers face and signpost them to appropriate support, services and opportunities.
