How amazing is this!! Thank you Mackenzie from all of us at Eastern Ravens Trust.
🗣️🙌 The Mayor of Stockton-on-Tees, Cllr Jim Beall, said: "In the midst of what must have been soul-destroying, Mackenzie has put his own feelings to one side. I can’t thank him enough for what he’s done to support two incredible charities."

"Young carers are being forced to become a hidden national health service. They are filling the gaps of our NHS." World-leading academic @profsaulbecker talks to Tonight about the children whose families could not cope without them. He says that some of Britain’s most vulnerable children are doing up to 50 hours a week and that more must be done to help them.

This evening's @ITVTonight programme with @ronkephillips was about young carers. It revealed some initial findings from our inquiry - the first of its kind. Our inquiry has found how some young carers are waiting over 10 years to be identified and a postcode lottery of support.

@profsaulbecker - Young carers are the "hidden health service - they are filling the gaps - forcing children because of lack of funding in other parts of welfare system"

Across the UK and behind closed doors, over a million children are providing care for loved ones who simply couldn’t cope without their support. They’ve been called the hidden health service. Join @ronkephillips as she meets #youngcarers across the country doing vital work often at the expense of their own education and childhood.

Great to see the booklet all done & ready to roll out!! Partnership work at its very best!!!
On this world mental health day, we know that young carers can struggle with their own mental health. A group of young carers we worked with last year have created a booklet for other young carers about their mental health. drive.google.com/file/d/13kF…
