Support Groups

The Young Carers Project runs groups that offer a chance for young carers to meet other children/young people in similar situations. They are an opportunity to have questions answered, deal with difficult feelings and spend time with other people in a similar situation.

In the past we have run groups for

  • children whose parent has a mental health problem
  • young carers whose parent has ME
  • groups for young carers with a sibling with a learning difficulty
  • art, drama and music groups

Groups planned for 2008

  • a group for teenagers that care for a brother or sister
  • a group for young carers whose parent has a mental health problem
