At Falcon Junior School we’re listening to young carers. We are responding to the needs of young carers.
Young carers regularly look after someone in their family or a friend who is ill, disabled, or has a mental health problem or an addiction.
They have extra things to do at home and might help by:
- Shopping, cooking, cleaning
- Managing medicines or money
- Providing personal care
- Helping get people out of the house
- Keeping an eye on someone
- Providing emotional support
If you think you are a young carer, don’t miss out. If you need it, you could get support to get good marks, with your health and wellbeing, and more.
Please speak to the school office or fill out a slip by the Young Carers box by the school office.
