What a way to kickstart #YoungCarersActionDay - with the launch webinar for the Young Carers Covenant. I'm so proud of the young carers/young adult carers who did such a brilliant job planning and then powerfully delivering the launch event to over 150 attendees @CarersTrust

The meeting is beginning to fill up – we’re so excited to see a range of organisations and individuals join us.

Volunteering is a great way to support carers, whether that's spreading the word on social media or raising awareness in your area.
If you have a few hours to spare or can make a longer commitment there’s plenty of ways to get involved.

Amazing impact from a pilot with an experienced Carer Support Nurse role @CNOEngland in Gt Yarmouth @nandwics on carers. The value of a system approach to carer identification, referrals and support is invaluable. Barrier = system digital interoperability

Cutting National Insurance and business taxes now, when you know it means huge cuts to public services after an election, does not feel like “long term decisions for a brighter future” to me. Sunak’s problem, like Johnson’s, is the mismatch between ever changing slogans and 1/2

Now I may be biased, but whilst 10 Downing Street has been a popular place to visit today, for me the most important visitors are the 6 young carers handing in an open letter tomorrow signed by over 1,250 young carers - calling on the PM to show his support for young carers
13 Nov 2023
Thank you to the 1,267 young carers and young adult carers for signing the open letter to the Prime Minister calling for better support for you as young carers
Coming together as a community helps influence change!
