Last week Vicki and Naomi from our service visited Merchants academy as part of mental health awareness week. It was great to speak to so many pupils including young carers. #youngcarers #mentalhealthawareness #youngcarersinschools

We need help to run our local Bristol young carers groups. If supporting young carers and helping them escape the stresses of their caring responsibilities is something that motivates you, we want to hear from you! Drop us a private message if interested! #youngcarers

A big thank you to Network Plus and Bristol Water who completely revamped our Bristol & South Gloucestershire Young Carers garden. The garden has been massively improved by their efforts and the young carers who recently tried it out loved it!

If you're a young adult carer, you can still claim your £30 gift voucher by joining our focus group on Thursday! To sign up for this focus group, visit this link: carersbreakfocusgroup.paperform.co

'Every Story Matters' wants to hear from young people about how the pandemic affected different aspects of their lives, including education, work and caring. To share your experience, please visit this link: covid19.public-inquiry.uk/every-story-ma…

We are encouraging young carers and their families to share their experiences of covid with this enquiry. Young carers voices are so often unheard and ignored - make sure yours is heard!

Our young carers decided to take matters into their own hands last week and have assumed control of Bristol City Council! Jokes aside, we had a really good day with some very constructive conversations about how to better support young carers in Bristol.

Today, on Carers Rights Day, we welcomed Sir Stephen Timms, Minister of State in the Department for Works and Pensions, to discuss the vital role of caregivers in our community and the ongoing support services available to them. Read more about the visit: carerssupportcentre.org.uk/social-securit…

We're so proud of all the young carers involved in this beautiful project, and grateful to Bath Philharmonia, Carers Trust and Ed Davey for making this possible. Full story: carerssupportcentre.org.uk/young-carers-f…

At PMQs today, I urged the Government to provide more help and support for young carers. And I'm glad that the Prime Minister had the chance to hear Love Is Enough performed live on his doorstep this week!

Young carers have an invisible weight on their shoulders. You can help to take some of the weight off! 🎒 #YoungCarersActionDay is about raising awareness. The more people know about young carers, the easier it is for them to get support 🤝 Get involved: carers.org/ycad
