The Young Carers Service run by Carers' Hub Lambeth supports young carers aged 5 to 21 years old who helps look after a family member or friend, who has an illness or condition. This might be a physical illness; mental illness; learning disability; or some form of addiction.
A young carer might ‘care’ in all sorts of ways, be it through personal care, help around the home, or by providing emotional support.
• We organise a mixture of exciting activities throughout the year.
• We run monthly young carers groups – a space to relax and have fun.
• We provide a listening ear and relevant help to young carers and their families.
No matter your caring role, however big or small, we are here to help.
