Delighted to attend todays presentation on a Young Carers. Powerful selection of images that were taken by young carers to represent their day to day experience. Insights also into the disproportionately high percentage of young female carers, which sadly only increases with age.

Happy #IWD2023 Yesterday young carers spoke to Oireachtas members highlighting "Sharing The Caring" research. Over two thirds of #youngcarers surveyed were female. We want to acknowledge the incredible strength of these young women today and every day #nooneshouldhavetocarealone

"I'd love a general more understanding of it overall between teachers and peers and family members. People really overlook how hard it is for the carer." Well done to Alannah for speaking so openly and powerfully about the challenges facing #youngcarers. Young Carers Ireland
