Young Carers

A young carer is a young person under 18 years old, who provides care and support for a family member with a chronic illness or disability in their household.

The main reasons why young people look after family members is because their relative may have a physical disability, learning disability, mental illness or suffer from substance misuse.

Hillingdon Council, along with Hillingdon Young Carers and other organisations, offer support to these young people and their families.
