Sunderland Carers Centre - Young Carers Sunderland Carers Centre - Young Carers. Who is a young carer? They may care alone or as part of a family. What do young carers do?

Sunderland Carers’ Centre offers confidential information, advice and support to people looking after ill, disabled or frail relatives or friends. A young carer is a person aged between 5 and 25 who helps
to look after someone in the family at home because they are
disabled, have been ill for a long time, have a mental health
problem or a problem with alcohol or drugs. A young carer may spend time

doing things like cooking,
cleaning and shopping. They may also give medicines and
tablets to the person they look after or help them
to wash or get dressed. Some may help their brothers
or sisters to get dressed and take them to school. Some young carers may not do any of these things
but they may worry about the person with the illness
or disability.
