Support Professionals

We support professionals to recognise and support young carers.
We do this through:

  • Guidance through our referral process
  • Training and workshops on a range of issues related to young carers and their families
  • Advice, support and resources to enable best practice

We work with statutory, voluntary and community agencies across the county and beyond:

  • Schools and colleges
  • Mental health teams
  • Adults & children’s social care
  • GPs, hospitals & school nurses
  • Other agencies working with children and families eg. Early Help Hubs
