What are you guys opinions on Young Carers between 11-18 who look after there parents or members of there families, who have mental health issues, disabilities, drug or alcohol problems.
Im doing a 20 minute speech about young carers tomorrow evening, im 26 and never had any involvement with young carers at all. I recently volunteered a week with 12 young carers giving them respite.
could you contact your local social services dept who maybe able to put you in touch with young people who care for their families to get some opinions??
it wasnt suppose to be daffy its just on here there are so many people who get picky about slight spelling mistakes and the thread often gets ruined when playground banter starts it just winds me up
