The Carers Trust and Young Carers Alliance have published the results of their survey of Young Carers and Young Adult Carers. The survey found that many Young Carers and Young Adult Carers feel overlooked and struggle to find time for themselves, and spoke about the mental toll that is placed on them because of their caring responsibilities. Young Carers also feel that they are not understood or heard by politicians.

Our CEO, David Walker, has signed the Open Letter to the Prime Minister on behalf of Bromley Well Young Carers - you can read the letter and sign here.

Young Carers Action Day

Wednesday 15th May 2023 is Young Carers Action Day (YCAD) and the Bromley Well Young Carers will be celebrating with a "Make Time For Young Carers" Media Workshop on Saturday 11th March - you can find details here. 

Bromley Well Young Carers support young carers in many ways. They offer lots of activities that help wiith their mental wellbeing, help to support them with their education and give them a break from caring, whilst meeting other young carers.
