Young Carers

In December we held a session with the Young Carer’s council members which opened up conversations around wellbeing and how the members cope with being a young carer.

They produced lovely posters sharing their individual coping strategies, as well as notes with motivational statements and positive reminders.

We received feedback from their Engagement Lead that the session ‘really got the Young Carers Council Members thinking and it sparked some interesting conversations’ and the young carer’s council members who said:

“I would definitely recommend for this to happen again and with them improving moral within us young people.’ and ‘I honestly think that it was amazing that people came in to explain good coping skills and strategies to help with them too.”
