Young Carers Awareness Day | Parenta.com
Summary
Most of us stagger through our daily existence with little thought about what would happen in such circumstances, but for some families, the burden of care may well fall on a child. The day is aimed at highlighting the important work that young carers do and giving them support in their endeavours. It could be helping a disabled relative manage their everyday life or taking on the household chores because there’s no one else to do them at home. Often carers need to sacrifice somethings in their own lives in order to look after others, and unfortunately, some young people are dealing with situations that are both emotionally and physically difficult. The pack includes ideas and tools to help people get involved in Young Carers Awareness Day.
