Young Carers

You’re a young carer if you’re under 18 and taking care of someone in your family who needs extra help because they are sick or have a disability. 

If you want to talk to someone about being a young carer, you could try speaking to a trusted adult or contacting us on the Meic helpline. 

You could also try some of these services for information or support:

We have lots of blogs on Meic. These are some of the ones that are about young carers:
