The Knowsley Young Carers Project works with children and young people up to the age of 18 who look after a sick or disabled parent or relative.

As a young carer, you may have a range of responsibilities which could affect your health, physical and emotional wellbeing as well as depriving you of social and educational opportunities.

How will the project help me?

It recognises that you have individual needs and rights, which should be taken into account separately from the person you are caring for.

If you want to find out more about getting help or just speak to someone for advice and guidance, give us a call.
